  Asset Protection Insurance Network

  Jul 2009 - Jun 2016

  Senior Account Executive

  My journey in the Insurance industry began at Asset Protection during a college internship program and continued with full-time employment post-graduation. I gained a wealth of experience by navigating the challenges that faced a local independent agency. My role was multi-dimensional spanning sales, service, and leadership across both Personal and Commercial Lines. My time at the agency fostered a strong foundation of Insurance knowledge, the growth of a large book of business, and the development of leadership skills, targeted niches, and focused areas of expertise.

  Lundstrom Insurance

  Jun 2016 - Apr 2020

  Manager, Commercial Lines Operations

  The transition to Lundstrom was driven by my desire to more narrowly focus on specific business segments and find opportunity in a larger marketspace. Lundstrom provided the opportunity to develop and demonstrate my natural leadership and sales abilities. While selling and servicing a Commercial Lines book of business, I transitioned to managing Operations for Commercial Lines, the primary revenue-driving department of the agency. I partnered with the President/CEO and Executive Team to execute targeted business plans, hire/develop/retain top industry talent, and construct and implement strategic operational strategies and initiatives.

  R&R Insurance is one of the largest and most well respected independent agencies in the Midwest and was a natural fit when my family and I targeted a relocation to SE Wisconsin. R&R maintains a fierce commitment to independence, an employee focused culture that is second to none, and shared core-values of both growth and innovation. Known as the Knowledge Brokers, we work relentlessly to add value to all aspects of the insurance lifecycle. As the Director of Personal Lines I am responsible for the vision, growth, and strategic direction of one of the strongest Personal Lines Business Units in the Midwest. This includes actively leading the evolution of our Private Client Division, offering curated products and services tailored specifically to successful families with significant assets to protect. This role perfectly combines my leadership, sales, and operational experience, my dedication to serving clients, and my passion for attracting, developing, and empowering top industry talent.
