Feature Spotlight #26 - Cherish Cocivera

Trailblazing with Tenacity: Cherish Cocivera’s Journey in Title Insurance


In the ever-evolving world of title insurance, Cherish Cocivera has carved out her place as a powerhouse, blending expertise, innovation, and a deep passion for the industry. As an Operations Manager in Phoenix, AZ, she has spent the last 20 years mastering the intricacies of title, refining processes, and pushing the boundaries of efficiency. Her journey is one of perseverance, mentorship, and a relentless pursuit of excellence.

A Legacy in Title


Cherish’s path to title insurance wasn’t just fate—it was family. Growing up, she was surrounded by relatives in the industry. Her aunt and uncle, both seasoned professionals at Security Title, played pivotal roles in shaping her career. After spending much of her youth in Indiana, Cherish returned to her Arizona roots, where her aunt helped her land her first role in document retrieval and chaining. From that foundational experience, she built a career dedicated to operational efficiency and technological advancement.


The Art of Leadership & Mentorship



For Cherish, leadership is more than just a title—it’s a responsibility. She found inspiration in Natalie Bombardier, a woman whose grace, directness, and depth of knowledge left a lasting impact. “She handled everything with such class,” Cherish recalls, a standard she now holds herself to as a mentor and leader.

Despite her success, Cherish acknowledges the challenges women face in the title industry, from breaking through traditional structures to ensuring their voices are heard. Her advice to those just starting?

“Find your voice. Challenge yourself and become an asset in your field and company.”

Passion, Drive, and the Power of Perspective


What keeps Cherish pushing forward? The people. The community she’s built within the industry and the company she works for fuel her passion daily. She and her team set out to make their mark, both literally and figuratively, and that shared vision keeps her motivated.


Outside of work, Cherish finds wisdom and new perspectives in podcasts like Armchair Expert, which dives into human behavior, challenges, and personal growth. As a leader, she understands the importance of empathy and adaptability, knowing that everyone approaches challenges differently.


Music, Legacy & a Life Beyond Title


While Cherish is a force in the title world, her colleagues might be surprised to learn that she spent nine years as the lead singer of an 80s rock band in Phoenix! Her love for music runs deep, with Pink Floyd as her favorite band and Cher as her ultimate artist. And if you ask about her first concert? Jo Dee Messina’s Burn Tour in 2001—a memory that still sparks joy.


When asked about her philosophy in work and life, Cherish shares a mantra that resonates deeply: “Everyone and everything have a story.” This belief drives her leadership, her approach to challenges, and her ability to connect with others on a meaningful level.


Looking Ahead: A Legacy in the Making


While Cherish isn’t ready to define her legacy just yet—after all, she has many more years of impact ahead—one thing is certain: she is shaping the future of title insurance with passion, innovation, and unwavering determination. Her parting advice to the Her. Title Collective community?

“Continue to be strong, independent thinkers, and push for greatness within yourself. Find enjoyment in the little things.”

Cherish Cocivera isn’t just making waves, she’s creating a lasting ripple effect in the industry. And for those who haven’t met her yet, she’s definitely one to know. Thank you, Cherish for sharing your story, it is truly inspiring and an honor to know and see you!
