WASHINGTON – Lauren G. Pachman, Esq., Counsel and Director of Regulatory Affairs for the National Association of Professional Insurance Agents (PIA), has been elected to the 2024-25 executive committee of the National Flood Association (NFA). In addition to her PIA responsibilities, she will assume the role of 2024-25 Secretary of NFA next month.
