Joyce Usher-Mesiano

Joyce-Usher-Mesiano-140x150Title: President

Company: National Brokers Insurance Services Inc.

Location: Vaughan, Ont.

As president of National Brokers Insurance Services Inc., Joyce Usher-Mesiano is no stranger to the fortitude it requires to overcome challenges. When she started her insurance business 17 years ago, she resolved to succeed through her own determination as she encountered banks that would not invest in a woman’s undertaking. “I live by the ABC’s,” she explains, “Ask, be Bold, and accept the Challenges.” This mentality certainly applies to not only National Brokers Insurance Services Inc., but to her formation of Monarch Intermediaries, a managing general agent that provides a second medical opinion. She created Monarch when her sister was diagnosed with lung cancer. All of Ms. Usher-Mesiano’s professional endeavors have the same motivation: to give people peace of mind by providing for them the best possible insurance policies to meet their personal needs.
