Gayle PopkeyTreasurerI started my insurance journey as an E&S Underwriter at Gateway Underwriter’s Agency before transitioning to agency-side roles, managing and marketing to small to mid-sized accounts. In 2006, I pivoted to the carrier sector, contributing at State Auto and Travelers in diverse marketing, sales, and underwriting capacities. Since 2019, I've been with The Hanover Insurance Group as a Quality and Learning Consultant for the Underwriting Development Solutions Team. I proudly hold CPCU, AU, CIC, CISR, and AINS designations. In my personal time, I cherish moments with my husband and daughter and have a penchant for cooking, fitness, and reading. |

Paul RoderickVice PresidentI began my risk management and insurance career nearly a decade ago overseeing the risk and insurance program at a large public entity. I like to think of the experience as a baptism by firehose and learned a ton about the business. Today, I work in the digital product and operations space at a WR Berkley excess carrier, where I seek to bridge the gap between technology, insurance, and humans. Having my CPCU for 5 years, I've been involved at the local level and more recently at the national level, I can say that serving is rewarding. Outside of work, I enjoy planning my next adventure – ideally to a national park or another country and trying new exotic cuisines. |
