Melissa Hanes, Director of Agent Development

I was born in Oklahoma and raised in Neosho, MO.  My husband (Derek) and I have 6 children and 2 sweet grandchildren who we adore.  It wasn’t until 2009 that I moved back to Oklahoma, started my insurance career and developed a passion for educating seniors on their rights and options regarding their Medicare.  Over the last decade I've been helping this underserved population by empowering them to make the best insurance decisions for their individual healthcare needs.  I recently resigned my position as Sales Manager for one of the nation’s largest Medicare insurance carriers to join this amazing team at Legacy Insurance Advisors. I provided support, training and mentorship to hundreds of independent insurance agents around the state of Oklahoma and gave them the tools they needed to make the right impact for Medicare beneficiaries.  The experience I gained in my previous role gave me a unique look at how to help navigate the complexities of Medicare for both Medicare beneficiaries and agents alike. I pride myself on operating with the highest integrity and having a heart to serve our senior community. I would be honored to help you navigate the complexities of Medicare and be of service for all your insurance needs.
