Amy Funderburk has been appointed as general counsel at the North Carolina Department of Insurance (NCDOI).
Funderburk assumes the role previously held by John Hoomani, who was named as the department’s chief operating officer last month.
She has more than two decades of legal experience, first joining the state’s department of justice as an assistant attorney general in 2006.
Funderbank joins the NCDOI from North Carolina’s credit union SECU, where she was assistant corporate secretary and legal counsel before being promoted to board governance lead.
Her previous state government experience also includes work as deputy counsel for the Administrative Office of the Courts and clerk of court for the Supreme Court.
North Carolina insurance commissioner Mike Causey says: “Amy is a highly experienced and dedicated public servant who brings a wealth of knowledge in government to this important position.
“I am confident that Amy will bring the same level of service and commitment to the department.”
