What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a role where I can lead complex residential and commercial property claims—using coverage analysis, litigation support, and settlement strategy—to deliver accurate evaluations and timely, cost-effective outcomes in a high-volume environment.

I’m a motivated, results-driven insurance professional with 10+ years of experience specializing in residential and commercial property claims, litigation, and liability claims management. I focus on delivering accurate claim evaluations and timely resolutions while operating confidently in high-volume, fast-paced environments.

In roles such as GL Senior Examiner and Litigation Specialist, I’ve handled complex claims scenarios across multiple lines—supporting policy interpretation, liability/negligence analysis, and precise documentation for audit readiness. I’ve coordinated with contractors, field adjusters, defense counsel, and internal teams to manage supplements, revisions, and risk transfer-related issues.

I’ve managed significant caseloads, including 75+ litigated residential property claims, performing detailed coverage analysis and liability assessments in line with state regulations and company guidelines. I also helped develop litigation strategies—supporting mediations, depositions, and trial proceedings—and negotiated settlements to reduce claim severity and legal costs.

From construction defect excess claims to field and desk adjusting, I’ve overseen thorough investigations, estimated and audited claim documentation, and monitored litigation to control indemnity and expense costs. I bring strong judgment, clear reporting to leadership and reinsurers, and a customer-centered approach grounded in accountability and settlement negotiation.
