mambabo@lovascogroup.com
About
Meg works with our team of advisors and clients to manage their insurance policies. Her customer service role is often synonymous with “caregiver.” Meg has been taking care of elder family members since she was 12 years old; her empathy allows her to relate to older clients and understand their concerns and unique needs.
For more than 40 years, Meg has served a range of clientele—from elderly annuity holders to executives. She began her insurance career with CNA in 1980. CNA’s reorganization in early 2002 allowed her the opportunity to join ALCOS (later Brown & Brown) as a Customer Service Representative in the Financial Services division.
Meg appreciates the close-knit, familial feel of LoVasco, where the well being of everyone is most important.
