Superior Access Insurance Adds South Central Region Director

Superior Access Insurance Services Inc. President Mike Mayo has announced that Gail Bowlin has joined the firm as director of the south central region, which includes Texas, Louisiana and Oklahoma. Bowlin will be responsible for regional development, acquiring additional carrier appointments and building a larger independent agency membership base. According to Mayo “While Superior Access has enjoyed a substantial amount of success in Texas, adding someone with Gail’s experience gives us the opportunity to expand more rapidly throughout Texas and into Louisiana and Oklahoma.”

A licensed property and casualty agent and life and health agent, Bowlin began her insurance career in 1975 with Texas National Insurance Agency. At American Standard Underwriters, she was manager of underwriting and human resources. For the next 18 years, Bowlin was agency manager and program division manager at Arthur J. Gallagher Company (and Henley, Williams and Associates, an AJGCO merger acquisition). While at Henley, Williams and Associates, she developed an insurance product for foreclosed properties that grew to over $20 million in premium a year and, thereby, attracted the attention of AJGCO which resulted in the merger. Most recently, she opened the RPS of Texas office, the wholesale division of AJGCO.

Bowlin has served on the Trustees and Changellor Advisory Council of the North Harris Montgomery Community College District, was a director of Houston Northwest Chamber of Commerce for three terms (serving as chairman of the board in 1999), served on advisory boards of First Bank of Texas, Spring ISD Education Foundation and was a board member of American Heart Association. She also served as a national seminar instructor for Agency Management Services Users Group.
