Pinnacle Financial Services expands sales team and footprint in the Midwest.

Warminster, PA, July 6th, 2018  - Pinnacle Financial Services, a well-known  leader in sales of insurance and financial products serving the senior market,  announced today the hire of Michelle Scianna as Regional Vice President Midwest Region.   In this role Scianna will oversee the Midwest Regional Sales office, and be responsible for the continued growth of sales through the independent agent channel. She will focus on senior products including Medicare, Life Insurance, Annuities and Ancillary Health. 

Michelle brings over a decade of experience working in the senior market.  She started her career working for United Healthcare. Her role evolved from Agent Manager to Sales Director, working with the external distribution channel. Her team showed significant growth for UHC. After leaving United Healthcare, she started a successful agency in the Midwest. “Michele will be an invaluable addition to the Pinnacle family as we continue our sales strategy, growing our footprint organically,” said Angela Palo, Executive Vice President at Pinnacle.

“Pinnacle has long been a leader in the senior market with a reputation second to none in the industry,” says Scianna.  “By giving unparalleled training and support to their agent distribution, Pinnacle has separated themselves from other FMO’s. I am extremely excited to be joining the team.”

“As we continue to grow our National footprint, Michelle’s unique perspective of having worked as an agent, agency owner and carrier rep gives her a unique skill set that will serve our distribution well,” said Pinnacle CEO Kevin Shields. “I look forward to adding such a highly seasoned, energetic member to our Pinnacle sales team."
