A big thank you to Ashley for not only training Grace with—well—grace on all things Epic, but also for going above and beyond her role. She took the time to send me thoughtful feedback on Grace’s progress, what to expect moving forward, and how she plans to support not just Grace, but the entire Risk Placement team in leveling up our Epic platform knowledge.

Training may be part of Ashley’s job, but it’s clear she brings true passion to the work. Her dedication to helping others succeed, even on a busy day, doesn’t go unnoticed. We’re lucky to have her!

Huge thanks to Tayler for stepping up on short notice to help quote not just one, but two Personal Lines policies! Your expertise and insight on essential coverages was invaluable, especially in areas where I fell short because my space is Commercial Lines. You jumped in without hesitation or complaint, and truly showed what being a great teammate is all about. Grateful to have you in the trenches with me!

In most sales environments, it’s rare for a peer to introduce you to an active prospect they’re working with, but Max didn’t hesitate. After I mentioned I’m targeting a specific niche, he immediately saw the connection and made the introduction, knowing his prospect had deep expertise in that space. That conversation not only provided valuable insights, but also led to introductions to two of the top three players in the field. None of that would have happened without Max’s support.

I want to take a moment to recognize and thank Jennifer for her outstanding support during the IT setup of our new office in San Antonio. Despite our challenges of managing this project entirely remotely, Jennifer’s willingness to step up and her positive attitude played a crucial role in making the implementation a success.

Supporting our vendors and our team was instrumental. Jennifer’s dependable presence and collaborative spirit truly made a difference, and I’m grateful for her contributions to the team.

Thank you, Jennifer!

Ashton has been amazing to work with. While my manager has been out on a much needed vacation, Ashton has been taking all of my questions like a champ. She is always so happy to help and so knowledgeable. She is more than willing to call me when something is not making sense and share her screen so I know exactly what I am doing and not just guessing at it. Such a valuable asset and I am excited to be working side by side with her in the future. Knowing how kind, caring, and helpful she is puts me at ease...especially while being so new and still learning new things every day. Thanks Ashton!

I have had to submit a few requests to IT for assistance and each time Ethan is prompt to come save me. He is always so kind and helpful, and knows exactly what he's doing and how to assist me. Thanks for being my saving grace, Ethan!

Ethan has been incredibly helpful with my IT needs. He is patient, thorough, and ensures that issues are fully resolved. He frequently checks in to make sure everything with my new computer is running smoothly and keeps me updated on any outstanding concerns or follow-ups.

She has also sat in on our EPIC team meetings to help answer questions people have, and the team has been very appreciative of her insight & knowledge of EPIC.

Ashley- Thank you for being a great team player, with a positive attitude and get'r done spirit! I appreciate you!

Juliana has been a huge help in remarketing accounts for our PL Middle Market. Thank you for helping us try to stay afloat, Juliana! I appreciate you and love that you are learning more and getting more experience along the way! Thank you!

Laura has been absolutely amazing at getting all the new CG Store orders fulfilled so quickly and efficiently. She’s done an incredible job managing the large volume of pre-sale and extra items—taking photos, updating inventory, and expertly handling every question that comes her way.

Her organizational skills are unmatched, and thanks to her expert folding and labeling, the store always looks pristine. It’s such a joy to have a store we’re proud of, and that’s all because of Laura’s dedication, attention to detail, and hard work.

Thank you, Laura! You truly are a rockstar, and we couldn’t do it without you!

Becca has been absolutely amazing on the slide deck project. She’s incredibly helpful, collaborative, and always striving to make the final product the best it can be. She proactively checks in and makes thoughtful updates—even for small improvements—which shows her attention to detail and dedication.

She’s consistently refining the work, and her commitment to excellence truly stands out. On top of that, she’s jumped in to help with some Airtable updates and automations on a few other marketing projects that would have taken me much longer to get to—helping move everything forward smoothly.

We’re so lucky to have someone like Becca on our team!

Thank you Stacy for being a great mentor! As we are working through an SBA client-facing project, Stacy has been a great guide for assessing who on the SBA team is impacted and how we want to address any cleanup.

Thank you Sarina for all that you do!

Abbey deserves a HUGE shoutout as I am constantly reaching out to her.

Abbey is always so kind and prompt when I reach out, and she really does make our jobs easier. Thank you Abbey for everything you do!

I want to take a moment to recognize all that Randi does for the benefits team.
