Member Services Representative — GBDS, Life, Health
“I think of my role at WAEPA as an opportunity to serve those who serve us as U.S. citizens. Federal employees continuously make significant contributions to our nation and the lives we lead today. It’s incredibly rewarding to know that I can give back by helping provide these individuals with coverage that meets their needs and gives them peace of mind.”
Maurkita joined WAEPA in September 2022.
