“Mychal Walker has demonstrated exceptional leadership and unwavering commitment to NABIP during his tenure as Treasurer. Facing significant financial challenges, Mychal took decisive action, implementing strategic changes that resulted in positive cash flow and a stronger financial foundation for our association. His dedication to transparency, fiscal responsibility, and the best interests of our members is evident in his accomplishments.

Mychal’s extensive experience, including his service on the MARTA Board of Directors, the NFIB Leadership Council, and the Georgia Department of Public Health State Board, showcases his ability to navigate complex issues and deliver results. His proven track record of leadership, coupled with his deep understanding of NABIP’s mission, makes him an ideal candidate for Vice President.

I wholeheartedly endorse Mychal Walker for NABIP Vice President. His vision, integrity, and dedication will undoubtedly lead NABIP to a brighter future.

Keep Walking with Walker!”

Don Bolia, Principal, Peachtree Government Relations

“I am happy to support Mychal Walker in any way I can. I first got to know Mychal while he was working as NFIB Leadership Chair to oppose legislation that would have imposed a harmful mandate on small businesses and patients. His clear sighted and thoughtful advocacy was instrumental in stopping the measure from passing and saved Georgians millions of dollars in increased health care costs. He is a well-known and respected leader in the Peach State and a credit to any organization of which he is part.”

Jesse Weathington, President & CEO, Georgia Association of Health Plans

“Mychal has provided invaluable leadership as chair of the Georgia Leadership Council of NFIB, helping us successfully navigate many issues on behalf of our small business members. In addition to his leadership as chairman, he has also been called on countless times to participate in high level meetings with elected officials and to testify on our behalf before legislative committees on complex issues in the General Assembly.  He is well respected by legislators on both sides of the aisle and regarded as a trusted subject matter expert on both insurance and healthcare related issues.”

Nathan Humphrey, Regional Director , National Federation of Independent Business NFIB

“I’ve had the pleasure of working alongside Mychal for many years, beginning with our time together on NABIP Atlanta’s Board. Since then, we’ve had the opportunity to lead and follow each other through various roles at the local, state, and regional levels—including Georgia and Region 5. Every step of the way, Mychal has brought passion, integrity, and a deep commitment to doing what’s right for our members.

What I admire most about him is that he’s not just dedicated—he’s fearless when it comes to standing up for NABIP’s mission. He knows how to engage the right people, push forward the right initiatives, and make real things happen. We’ve shared both wins and tough moments, and through it all, Mychal has shown he knows how to lead with both strength and heart.

As a member, I want to know the people at the helm are as committed as I am—to advocacy, financial health, industry relevance, and a strong, engaged community. Mychal brings all of that to the table. He’s ready for the challenge, and I’m confident he’ll serve NABIP and its members exceptionally well as Vice President.”
