Devann Webster is the Claims Manager for Morrison and also serves as Operations Administrator for Deepwater Riser Services.
What first brought Devann to Morrison was her participation in a high school program called the C.O.E. (Cooperative Office Education) where she was required to hire on with a company in order to gain office experience. Morrison was her first call.
As a senior in high school, Devann started with Morrison as a mail runner. Upon graduation, she began working in Morrison’s purchasing department as a Junior Buyer, while pursuing her education at Nicholls State University. In 2008, Devann graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Business Administration and decided to further her career at Morrison. She transferred to the Human Resources Department and eventually to Risk Management. When a position opened in operations at Morrison’s riser division, she moved into that role while maintaining her duties as claims manager.
