Michelle has been in the insurance industry for 34 years and has been with AIA since 2006.
 
When asked what her favorite part of her job is, she said,

“I find great joy in helping others and that is something I am able to do with my job. I love the agents I work with each day and helping them find a way we can meet their needs by placing coverage for their clients.”
