I am so pleased and excited to announce the selection of a new Deputy Administrator for Compliance, Francie Tolle.
She brings to the role so many areas of expertise, including time with the Farm Service Agency, as well as RMA Insurance Services and Product Management.
Perhaps most importantly, in my opinion, she has decades of personal knowledge and hands on experience as a farmer and rancher. Along with her husband Chuck, and two married sons, she operates a farm in Oklahoma, growing wheat, row crops, and raising cattle among other things.
“Over the last nine years at RMA, I have appreciated and enjoyed the opportunities to collaborate with the Compliance staff on numerous projects,” says Francie, who has directed the Product Administration and Standards Division for the past six years.
“Now, as I start the position as the new Deputy Administrator, I am excited about the future of working alongside and leading a team that plays such a vital role in strengthening the crop insurance program.”
RMA is extremely fortunate to have Francie’s broad knowledge and experience to lead this critical Compliance mission!
