Shrubb joins AXA XL from Ironshore International where she served as a production specialist, charged with growing the company’s war, terrorism and political violence book of business on the West Coast. She began her underwriting career at Hiscox USA.

In her new role at AXA XL, Shrubb will be based in Atlanta and will be responsible for the management, marketing and underwriting of specialized War, Terrorism and Political Violence insurance including standalone U.S. terrorism policies, active assailant insurance, and chemical, biological, radiological & nuclear (CBRN) coverage.
