My deepest appreciation goes to our incredible team, who make Liberty Mutual an exemplary workplace, and to the leadership team for their dedication to advancing our business. I am profoundly grateful for my time with the company and for everyone’s unwavering resolve to uphold our promises to customers, partners, communities, and each other.”
