Marcia Bastias

Commercial Account Manager

I’m Marcia Bastias, a Commercial Account Manager on the Transportation team at Axis Insurance. I support our producers with both renewals and new business, guide our Account Assistants as they grow into their roles, and manage the day-to-day servicing of our transportation accounts.

I’ve been a licensed insurance professional since 2002, starting my career in personal lines. In 2008, I transitioned into commercial insurance, beginning with program work for professional associations such as ARIDO and OAA. That opportunity opened the door to more complex commercial risks, and I’ve continued to grow my technical expertise, particularly in auto fleets and individually rated commercial auto (IRCA).

I’m most proud of the trust I have built and maintained with clients. Insight and proactive advising is what empowers our clients to take risks with confidence and grow their businesses. I know the intricacies of facility auto and IRCA policies, where flexibility is limited. Knowing the details of these policies can make all the difference.

Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, especially my niece and nephew and staying active through cycling, yoga, and weight training. Every few years, I return to Chile to reconnect with my roots, my culture, and my language. It’s a grounding part of who I am, and it shapes the way I show up in all areas of life.
