Mountain States’ Hunter Graham honored as New Mexico Company Rep of the Year
MARIETTA, PA (October 24, 2024) – Donegal Insurance Group® is proud to announce that Hunter Graham has been named Company Rep of the Year by The Independent Insurance Agents of New Mexico (known as IIANM, or The New Mexico Big I).
A Business Relationship Manager for Mountain States Insurance Group (a Donegal member company), Graham’s territory encompasses the states of New Mexico and Colorado.
“This is not an award where the Big I chooses the winner – it is strictly from nominations given from our member agents,” said Patty Padon, CEO of IIANM. “So that is even more significant for Hunter, to be honored by the people he calls on every day.” Padon added: “The Big I was thrilled to see Hunter nominated because we love Hunter. We love having his enthusiasm around, and we love watching him grow in this industry. He is going to be so successful in whichever direction life takes him. No on was more deserving of this award.”
A Hobbs, N.M. native currently based in Albuquerque, Graham joined the Mountain States team as a Commercial Lines Underwriter in 2021, following graduation from New Mexico State University, where he earned his B.A. in Finance with a minor in Risk Management and Insurance.
Graham transitioned into his role as a BRM in Summer 2023, and since then, has built deep relationships with our Mountain States agents throughout New Mexico and Colorado. He currently serves as the Young Agents Committee Chair with the New Mexico Young Agents.
“Hunter’s personality and enthusiasm bring an energy to our team and agents that is infectious,” said Nicole Leininger, Regional Vice President for Mountain States Insurance Group. “He jumped into his marketing role and has been making a big impact ever since, bringing value to his agents with his underwriting background. We are very proud of this accomplishment so early in Hunter’s career.”
Graham was honored at IIANM’s 90th Anniversary Convention and Trade Show, held Oct. 16-17th in Albuquerque.
