There’s more good news for the M&R family, and this is big. Our own Mona Hanna has been honored yet again, having just been one of the select few named as a Business Insurance 2018 Women to Watch.

This award, which is the only one of its kind, celebrates leading women from every facet of the commercial insurance industry. Since its inception in 2006, the honor has grown into an educational program aimed at the advancement of women in commercial insurance, risk management and related fields (in Mona’s case, insurance law). The full list of winners was published today at Business Insurance. In addition, a profile of Mona will run in the December edition of Business Insurance.

We couldn’t be more proud of Mona who, time and again, has proven herself to be a leader and star in so many areas, including insurance as Business Insurance has so appropriately recognized.
