Brittany Beavers
Brittany was born and raised in Marion, where she continues to reside with her boyfriend, Josh. They are proud parents to a Shih Tzu, named Oscar.
Brittany’s path to working in insurance was paved with a variety of areas that helped shaped her experience. She has worked in nursing homes, was a receptionist and has done retail. Her true passion for the insurance industry was sparked by a very personal experience. When Brittany’s brother was in a traumatic car accident that left him dependent on his auto insurance for bills and assistance, she learned first-hand that it was not only important to have the proper coverages but also to have an agent that is compassionate. It was through this experience and witnessing the positivity of what insurance can help safeguard that Brittany took interest in the industry. She worked at an insurance office previous to Schepers Agency where she gained knowledge and cemented her desire to be involved in insurance as a career.
Schepers Agency is grateful to have Brittany and her experience as a key staff member in the office. She has obtained her licensing in property and casualty and shows great dedication and compassion for both the customers and her duties at the Agency.
Brittany is very organized and enjoys working with people. She loves being part of the sense of community the small town of McBain offers and appreciates working for a locally owned company.
Brittany is an avid crafter, loves to crochet, knit and quilt. She likes reading, coffee and spending time with family and friends. Going up in a hot air balloon and traveling around Europe and the U.S. are Brittany’s main bucket list items.
Brittany believes both teamwork and pushing herself to always improve are ways to be most effective and successful. Brittany certainly exemplifies these qualities in her position and is an incredible asset to Schepers Agency.
