Mercedes Bio
Mercedes was born in Mexico City and has proudly called Colorado her second home for the past 30 years. Throughout her professional career, she has dedicated herself to supporting and empowering the community she calls home, with a particular passion for serving the Spanish-speaking community.
Helping others is at the heart of what Mercedes does, and Medicare is another way she can provide guidance and support—helping seniors better understand their options and make informed decisions based on their individual needs. With more than 10 years of experience in the insurance industry, Mercedes founded La Familia Insurance Services to expand her reach and make a greater impact in the communities she serves.
Choosing an insurance plan can be overwhelming. That’s where La Familia comes in. Mercedes and her team will do the legwork, compare plans and benefits, and help you find coverage that fits your lifestyle, needs and budget.
Best of all, La Familia's assistance comes at no cost to you.
