Mylo COO Belen Tokarski has been promoted to president of the company.
David Embry will continue as Mylo CEO. Tokarski joined the company in 2019 as senior vice president, chief of strategy — commercial lines and became COO four months later.
Mylo, a digital insurance broker whose investors include Lockton Cos. Inc. and Guggenheim Partners, launched in 2015 as a one-stop-shop for businesses and individuals to compare and buy insurance for business, small-group benefits, home, auto, life and individual health.
“I’m excited to announce Belen as Mylo’s new President,” CEO David Embry said in the release. “She has a proven track record of insurance innovation that will keep us on the leading edge as the world changes and our customers’ needs evolve.”
As COO, Tokarski helped the company achieve double-digit gains in operational efficiency and month-over-month profitable revenue growth in 2021.
“I’m passionate about Mylo’s mission to revolutionize insurance and look forward to working with our highly talented team to give our customers the most personalized solutions,” Tokarski said in the release.
Last summer, Mylo hired 25-year e-commerce veteran Greg Bannon as its new chief technology officer. In January 2021, Mylo created a CFO role and filled it with Dana Bjornson, who most recently was CFO and chief compliance officer for George K. Baum & Co.
