There's a new High Net Worth insurance pro in the industry, and she's not looking for wealthy clients. Well, not at this time, anyway. That's because Ira Curry, a vice president for property in the Atlanta office of Aspen Insurance, has come forward as one of two winners of Wednesday's Mega Millions $636 million jackpot.

Doug Menelly, a senior vice president with Aspen in New York, confirmed Curry's status today. “Still—as of today—she's an employee of Aspen Insurance,” he says.

Curry, a “valued, long-term employee” at Aspen, has taken leave until things quiet down. “She's taking a little bit of time off to disappear with family for a while,” Menelly says. “In the next 10 days she's going to have $125 million wired into her account.”
