Melissa was selected for her leadership in driving profitable growth within the National Health Care Practice and the broader organization by launching Beecher Carlson\u2019s (now Brown & Brown Risk Solutions) Diversity, Equity & Inclusion (DEI) Council in 2020. With Melissa leading the council, they were able to quickly execute initiatives and recommendations that included re-engineering the internship program, launching the Talent Ambassador Program and establishing Employee Resource Groups. These initiatives led to a more diverse pool of internship candidates representing over 10 different schools and a targeted program for Historically Black Colleges & Universities (HBCUs).<\/p>\n
