Stephanie Mapes, Paul Frank + Collins’s (PF+C) captive insurance team leader, has been elected as president of the firm.
Mapes has worked at PF+C for 26 years and has helped lead the firm for the past two years as one of three members of the board’s executive committee. Mapes is the first female president in PF+C’s 46-year history.
Previous president, Crocker Bennett II, who ran the firm from 2010 until June of 2014, said: “As vice-president during my period as president, [Mapes] enhanced my work. She is a team-oriented professional who is well regarded by our attorneys, our staff and our clients. PF+C could not be better served than to be led by [her].”
Mapes began working at PF+C in 1988 as an associate attorney and has held numerous leadership positions over the years, including her past chairmanship of the marketing and strategic planning committees, and her role on the executive committee.
She became a shareholder of the firm in 1994 and helped create a firm-wide strategic plan in 2007. Mapes will continue to lead the firm’s captive insurance team while acting as president.
