Danica Mackara

Benefits Service Manager

A people-first professional who believes that work should be equal parts productivity and personality. With a knack for problem-solving, a love of organization, and just enough coffee to fuel big ideas, Danica brings energy and positivity to every project.

A Hershey native with a Bachelor’s in Business Administration. Her insurance career launched in 2015 with a start at Northwestern Mutual and a focus on life and disability products. Danica then spent six years sharpening her skill set on the property and casualty side with AAA Central Pennsylvania before joining Gunn-Mowery’s Employee Benefits Department in 2022 as an Account Executive.

After growing her benefits career on the client side, Danica stepped into her current role as Benefits Service Manager where she now supports and guides our team of Account Executives, committed to making benefits simple, strategic, and service-focused.

When she’s not diving into spreadsheets or coming up with creative client solutions, you’ll probably find her swapping gardening tips with her neighbors, enjoying the great outdoors, and spending time with her two boys.

At the heart of it all, she thrives on building connections, helping others succeed, and finding joy in the details that make work – and life – a little brighter
