A Bit About Me
​I'm a true believer in insurance; I think it's one of the greatest inventions of mankind. It can be challenging to discern what's right and what's wrong—sometimes a 6 is simply a 9 from another perspective. Legitimate disputes often arise during the process of handling an insurance claim, and my typical approach is to bring clarity to these disputes and identify where the rubber meets the road.
As an individual, I am continually devoted to self-improvement and development. As the old saying goes, "moving forward while keeping still," I often find myself in this balance through the continuous development of my talents and tools. On a personal level, I take great pride in being a father, an amateur chef, and a hobby enthusiast, learning and enjoying activities such as tennis, snowboarding, martial arts, and many other passions.
Work Experience
My professional background spans over 25 years in both sales and the construction industry. Throughout my career, I've had the opportunity to work on a wide range of projects, from small to large, selling services and products. My approach has always been consistent: the better I am at educating the person I'm communicating with, the more likely we are to arrive at the proper solution, whether that involves making a purchase or closing a claim.
One aspect I miss from my contracting background is the deep dive into the details of a project. I enjoyed helping clients understand exactly what I was delivering, comparing it apples to apples with other options, and seeing them choose my product and service over less expensive alternatives because they recognized the value I offered.
I strive to bring a similar experience to the insurance industry and my role as an independent consultant. My goal is to ensure that clients are well-informed and see the true value in the solutions I provide.
