IAOA recently named Michelle Mosher as their Member of the Year. This prestigious recognition highlights her exceptional contributions and dedication to the association. In this blog post, we dive into an exclusive interview with Michelle Mosher, exploring her achievements, passion, and insights that have earned her this esteemed honor. Originally from Orlando, Florida, made the decision to move to Connecticut and become a State Farm agent. However, after experiencing the frigid winters and long, cold months, she realized that her heart belonged in the warm and sunny climate of Florida. She continued her insurance career before landing an opportunity to acquire a friend’s agency. From then, Southshore Insurance Professionals was created from scratch on March 10th, 2014!
Michelle inspires other soon-to-be agency owners that they too can grow into the agency they dreamed of! Though it was not easy to say the least, it is completely possible with hard work and determination. “It was just me and a little tiny 10 by 10 office in an executive suite. And I just worked every day networking.” Southshore has grown to become the community agency of choice!
