GRANVILLE, OHIO — Residents in and around Granville can experience a better way to buy insurance for their homes, vehicles and much more as Marsha Durham opens Brightway, The Marsha Durham Agency Monday, July 19.
“I am excited to help families in my community find simpler insurance solutions for their needs,” said Durham. “Sometimes captive agents cannot offer everything that a customer needs to have, so I'm thrilled to have more options through Brightway to help these customers.”
Durham spent four years as an Agent with a captive insurance agency before opening her own Brightway Insurance Agency and is a licensed Property & Casualty insurance professional in Ohio. She and husband, Andy, have four sons, three dogs, a cat and a very busy household.

As a Brightway Agency Owner, Durham looks forward to offering a breadth of products and solutions to consumers in the Columbus metropolitan area. She focuses on property and casualty coverage and is passionate about making a difference in her community by helping families find the right insurance for their individual needs. Anyone who has worked with her before will tell you, “Just call Marsha; she’ll take care of you!”
“Marsha knows the local area and with Brightway she can offer far more options to her customers than she was previously able to provide as a captive agent,” said Brightway President and CEO Michael Miller. “We’re excited to partner with her to grow our brand in Ohio and expect her to be wildly successful with the all-encompassing business support she will receive from Brightway.”
