As the newest staff member of Nixon Insurance Agency, it is
time to formally introduce myself to the Nixon BlogWorld; my name is Megan
Nixon Swan and, if you couldn’t guess by the name Nixon, I am the daughter of
Dave. I come to Nixon Insurance Agency
by way of Bradley University, more specifically the Athletic Department. I spent six years at Bradley working as a
Certified Athletic Trainer, and in that time, I was responsible for the care of
Women’s Basketball, Men’s & Women’s Cross Country, Women’s Volleyball and
Softball, along with assisting where needed.
My life as an athletic trainer, involved going to all practices and
games for the sports I was responsible for, along with performing treatments
and rehabilitation for athletic injuries; my life also involved never ending
schedule changes, calls and texts at all hours of the night, and weeks,
sometimes months without a day off. All those, days on the road, last minutes
schedule changes and late nights and early mornings meant that I wasn’t able to
spend a whole lot of time with my new husband (It was one year June 30th).
So why make the switch from Athletic Training to Insurance
you ask? I began to realize a little
over a year ago, that I wanted something more in my life. As I pondered the different avenues I could
take (which can be difficult for a Master’s degree educated Athletic Trainer),
the conversation with my Dad began about the possibilities of joining the
business in the future. During a couple
of different shadow days earlier this Spring I realized the specifics of the
job were a little different, but, that overall Athletic Training and Insurance
weren’t that far removed from each other.
1. Everything is logged into the
computer, and I mean EVERYTHING! 2. The bottom line is we are here to help
people; we provide a service and our goal is to provide the best possible
service we can to our customers.
I have a lot to learn about the insurance business, but I am
really excited about what the future holds.
