People of AmFirst: Toni Johnson 🌟 "My first day at AmFirst, I walked up to the back door, and Chance Hallmark was there to greet me. He introduced himself and told me how glad he was to have me here. That moment has stuck with me for 20 years. It set the tone for everything I love about this place—working with people who feel more like family than just coworkers. Being part of the AmFirst Call Center isn’t just a job; it’s about helping people, building relationships, and making a difference in our members' lives.
