I'm an independent licensed health insurance agent who works for my clients—not an insurance company. My mission is to help individuals and families create Protection for Life plans that provide real coverage, real clarity, and real peace of mind. With over two decades of experience in healthcare, education, and sales leadership, I specialize in crafting customized insurance strategies that protect against life's unexpected moments—whether through Medicare, Marketplace plans, supplemental coverage, or long-term care solutions. I educate clients on their options, explain the fine print, and walk with them through every life stage, helping them adjust their plans as their needs evolve. As a Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University Coordinator and AHIP-certified Medicare advisor, I believe in empowering people to make confident, informed decisions about their health and financial future.

About Me I worked in the airline industry for 13 years, for a major airline carrier. I worked as a liaison between an airline and the FAA, to make sure the proper parts and work was being done on the aircraft of this major carrier. I retired early from this airline after 9/11. From there I started working as a counselor for two large universities helping individuals return to college to change careers for 7 years. After being laid off from both universities, a friend of mine asked if I would work with him in insurance, and after I saw the full picture of what he did, I immediately got my insurance license within a month, and started to learn things that if I had known when I worked for these other companies I would have purchased more coverage to protect myself. You see, Naturally, everybody knows that bad things happen to good HARD working people. When I was 26 years of age I was involved in a head on, hit and run, car accident that left me in a wheelchair, so I know first hand how YOU feel when life happens. My sister died from her 2nd bout with Cancer and during the 3 years she was fighting she did NOT have disability AND cancer insurance, so it is OBVIOUSLLY important to me to offer these to ALL my clients whether they buy them or not. Also, even and especially, if your young and think life insurance is not for you because you're young, I can show you how life insurance can also double as your “Tax Free” retirement and grow faster then your 401K. I love doing what I do, because new laws have made insurance hard to understand, and I want to build trust by giving you free help with quotes and education. Naturally, having an education background, I want to make sure my clients KNOW what to expect and what their getting, and that you have someone you can trust with all your insurance coverage that involves your health and well-being.
