Milliman Advanced Risk Adjusters? (MARA)

? Employee Spotlight ? ? ? We are thrilled to shine a spotlight on Klaudia Piechota, MARA’s Client Services Lead, who recently returned to work after having her son, Henry. We are so happy for Klaudia and are proud to support her as she embarks on the chapter of motherhood.?? ? Here’s what Klaudia said about her time away: During maternity leave, I soaked up the joys (and challenges!) of the newborn stage with our sweet boy, Henry, who was born on August 20th. We made the most of the beautiful New England fall, enjoying crisp air and vibrant foliage, and celebrated all the special moments of the holiday season—Henry’s first Halloween, Thanksgiving, and Christmas. Now, as we look ahead to warmer days, we’re excited for all the outdoor adventures to come, from stroller walks to beach trips.?

? Employee Spotlight ? MARA employees have a variety of interests and hobbies outside of work. One of Sarah Hinshaw’s (Product Development and Support Analyst) favorite activities is to travel, with her most recent trip being to Peru. Here’s what Sarah said about her trip: My husband Joe and I went to Peru over Thanksgiving. We stayed in Cusco for a few days, exploring Incan ruins like Saqsaywaman and learning the history of the city, then set off on the Inca Trail trek. The trek itself is around 26 miles (and contains a wild amount of stairs!) ?and at its highest point nearly reaches 14,000 feet at Dead Woman’s Pass, we trekked with a local guide and a group of 14 other hikers from the USA, Australia, Spain and Ireland! The trek was exceedingly rewarding, and I enjoyed meeting other people and learning about the history of Machu Picchu and the various ruins along the way.??
