GuardMe, a family-owned international student insurance provider with more than 25 years of global experience, has officially launched in the United States. The company is bringing its trusted expertise to schools, exchange programs, and students nationwide.

For decades, GuardMe has been dedicated to protecting students, faculty, and educators traveling for academic purposes. Now, with its U.S. expansion, the company is addressing the growing needs of international students and cultural exchange programs through tailored, compliant, and compassionate insurance solutions.

GuardMe’s insurance plans extend well beyond basic coverage. They include emergency and non-emergency medical care such as doctor visits, hospital stays, prescription medications, dental treatments, paramedical services, and mental health support — reflecting the company’s belief that wellness encompasses both body and mind.

Leading the U.S. expansion is Annemarie Estrada, CEO of GuardMe US. With over two decades of experience in international insurance and cultural exchange, Estrada is recognized for her expertise in regulatory compliance, operational strategy, and student-centered care. Her leadership emphasizes integrity, collaboration, and a commitment to strengthening global education through transparent partnerships with schools and program sponsors.

Beyond insurance, GuardMe also invests in the broader student journey. Its Student Support Program and Wellness & Learning Initiatives help institutions foster healthier campuses and more inclusive communities.

With this U.S. launch, GuardMe reinforces its mission: wherever learning takes students, the company is ready to provide protection and support.
