Napa to Sonoma Rose 5K and Half-Marathon
Team Mover’s Choice “turned miles into meals” this month at The Rosé 5K and Napa to Sonoma Half-Marathon in scenic wine country. Joined by Team BizChoice and Team Avant, we successfully raised more than $20,000 for Move For Hunger! That’s 27,000 meals for communities in need! Thanks to all our valued business partners who supported us in helping to combat hunger across North America through the transportation network. (See more photos and complete list of donors below.)

Staff Spotlight: Sue Ortiz
Executive Underwriter Sue Ortiz just celebrated her 25th year with Mover’s Choice! This impressive milestone was celebrated with a company luncheon featuring tributes from co-workers and broker partners. Sue notes her strong broker relationships as the most rewarding part of her job, and it shows!
Here’s what one of our broker partners had to say:
“Please congratulate Sue on 25 years of service! What a pleasure it is to work with her. It is so nice to talk to someone you can have a business relationship with, and build trust and a strong partnership. This strong tie seems to be diminishing in the industry. I always feel like Sue is connected to help us sell new business and to retain business. A common goal is nothing to take for granted. Sounds simple right?
Good attitude and a good work spirit goes a long way. It is so nice to pick up the phone for help, or discuss new business and get immediate assistance from Sue. This relationship makes our industry fun and has made such a difference for me in serving my clients.
Sue is always on the job with a smile. Never a gruff word or, worse, silence. We take so much for granted until we reflect. Thanks for the opportunity to celebrate Sue’s 25th year!”
~ Robert C. Alm, CIC, Eastern Insurance Group, LLC
Sue’s insurance career spans 45 years, having worked with Wausau Insurance and Chubb prior to joining Mover’s Choice. Sue holds her P&C License and graduated from the University of Wisconsin-La Crosse.
Fun Fact: Sue traveled throughout Europe during college, but now stays close to home to spend as much time as possible with her two beautiful grandchildren. If Sue could have one superpower, it would be x-ray vision! Actually, she’d settle for perfect vision!
