"I grew up in the insurance industry and have experienced the shackles that ineffective business processes with misaligned monolithic technology solutions have placed on insurance companies... Today, I really do believe those shackles can finally be removed with the right alignment of strategy to process to systems, and, I want to be out front in making this happen."...Deb Smallwood
