Marissa Vega is the Marketing & Insurance Specialist at NFA, where she leads the firm’s marketing efforts, including social media management, campaigns, and branding. She also plays a key role in coordinating NFA’s two annual events alongside Lauren Wheeler. In addition to marketing, Marissa oversees group benefits for business clients and supports the life insurance team as needed. Holding a BBA in Management from Angelo State University and a Texas Life & Health Insurance License, she blends her marketing expertise with deep knowledge of insurance to enhance NFA’s outreach and client support.

Since joining NFA three years ago, she has evolved from an administrative assistant to managing both the health insurance division and the firm’s marketing efforts, showcasing the firm’s commitment to career growth and internal development. Marissa has led several key initiatives at NFA in expanding the firm’s digital presence. She played a crucial role in transitioning the firm’s health insurance division into a more prominent service offering.

What drew Marissa to NFA was its strong emphasis on family and faith, values that deeply resonate with her. She enjoys working with colleagues to leverage their strengths in projects and appreciates having the creative freedom to develop new ideas. She finds motivation in her husband, family, and the clients she serves, knowing that her work has a direct impact on their success. Inspired by her grandfather’s wisdom—“Do your best, and then a little bit more”—she maintains a strong work ethic and commitment to excellence in everything she does.

Outside of work, Marissa enjoys traveling, attending concerts, watching sports with her husband Eli, and playing golf (even if she jokes about not being great at it!). Her grandmother’s advice, “You pray for me, I’ll pray for you,” has always stayed with her, reinforcing the importance of faith, family, and supporting others—values she proudly brings into her work at NFA.
