Meet Our Team

  • Traci Gass

    Agency Director

    I have been serving seniors in our community since 2004. As Agency Director, I am committed to ensuring every client receives compassionate, attentive care while guiding them through an important milestone in their lives. Family is central to who I am, and that same sense of care and connection influences how we support our clients—making them feel truly valued and at home.

  • Jennifer Rose

    Agent Sales Team Lead II

    I’ve been an agent here since 2017. I work closely with our clients to help them understand their Medicare options, such as Supplement vs. Advantage plans. I also help with a multitude of inquiries, claims, and reimbursements. I love reading and cats! I have over 1,000 books currently in my apartment (and growing).

  • Emilee Slavens

    Digital Marketing Specialists Lead II

    I have been with Senior Insurance Specialists since 2020 and am proud to be part of the Marketing team, where I enjoy finding creative ways to better connect with and serve our clients. Outside of work, I love spending time with family and friends—especially my two children and two grandchildren who keep life fun and busy—and when I get the chance, I enjoy playing golf with my husband.
