As the Managing Director, Annette coordinates all aspects of the Estate Planning & Business Succession team including client engagement, case design, underwriting and service.

Naturally forward-thinking, Annette’s skillset is organization and implementation. Her extensive experience in an agency setting, from ALCOS and Schechter Wealth, highlights her knowledge in policy planning and delivery, as well as efficient team management.

Meg works with our team of professionals 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.

Hope works with our team of professionals and clients to initiate and manage the life insurance underwriting process. Hope has five years of experience in case management, and uses her knowledge throughout the underwriting process to help ensureLoVasco is providing the best possible outcomes for our clients.

In her free time, Hope enjoys the great outdoors with her husband, Ben, and their two dogs. If she's not outside, Hope can be found knitting and watching game shows.
