Communication Studies

Kelly Simpson – M.A. 2007

After completing my undergraduate studies I entered the insurance industry where I have worked in two very different areas. My first job was as a Claims Adjuster and from there I transitioned into Underwriting. I was fortunate enough to have the opportunity to complete both Undergraduate and Graduate in the Communication Studies Department at UNCG. It was my home away from home!

My training as a Communication Studies major provided me with the knowledge and skill set necessary to handle a wide variety of professional and personal situations. Claims and Underwriting are both fields where difficult situations transpire that place the customer in a less than pleasant situation.
