Hector Cano, FWCI’s VP of Workers’ Compensation Claims and a RISE Ambassador, shared, “RISE is more than a recognition—it’s a movement to connect, support, and empower the next generation of insurance professionals. At FWCI, interns aren’t just observers; they contribute fresh ideas, challenge norms, and help us grow. I’m proud to be part of a company that sees potential and invests in it.”
