Giving back to Central Mississippi is something close to the heart of Vaughn Gresham. From coaching youth basketball programs for more than twenty years to serving on the Mississippi Food Network’s Board of Directors, the long-time Jackson resident has spent much of his life trying to do his part in the community.
Gresham will be opening the doors on a new venture next week to pitch in and help protect his neighbors in the heart of the Jackson Metro area. The new “Brightway, The Gresham Agency” Insurance at 300 Castlewoods Boulevard in Brandon will be open for business beginning June 13. The agency will offer new ways to buy insurance for homes, automobiles and many other coverage options.
“It’s all true to my heart,” Gresham said. “Much like working with the Food Network is helping give to those in need, my new business is truly an extension of that passion to serve.” Gresham has more than 25 years of customer service experience and holds a Bachelor of Arts degree from Jackson State University.
Just a twenty-minute drive from the Jackson State University campus that laid the foundation for his future, Gresham’s new venture focuses on helping his neighbors in Brandon and others who call Central Mississippi home. A native of Macon, Mississippi, Gresham and his wife, Maria, have a small-town approach when it comes to serving his friends and neighbors. “My motto is ‘Touching Lives, Changing Futures with Brightway, The Gresham Agency.”
