Eugene Zollinger of Marion, Texas, joined Assurity as a Regional Vice President on June 1^st, 2026. He will partner with Regional Wholesaler George Bokobo as the points of contact for the South Texas and Louisiana region.

In his new role, Eugene will manage and develop business relationships with insurance brokers, health and voluntary benefit agencies as well as producers in the worksite space.

He came to know Assurity years ago through his work.

“Assurity is an amazing organization. From the people and culture to their products, any type of experience I’ve had was fantastic. Because I started in insurance opening up an independent agency from scratch, I’m really passionate about the independent space. Assurity offers tremendous support and opportunities for independent brokers,” he said.

Before moving into the insurance industry, his career included sales, management and business development roles with Cintas and Bimbo Bakeries USA. While working with independent contractors, he saw their need for valuable insurance coverage and advising.
