What I'm looking for

I’m looking for a career I can grow for the rest of my life—where I can lead, communicate, and help clients succeed. I want a company that rewards drive, performance, and accountability while giving real opportunity to advance.

I’m an insurance agent driven by motivation to be the best in whatever I’m doing. I’m young, energetic, and ready to take on new opportunities while building a career I can grow for the rest of my life.

In my supervisor role at K&J Mechanical Insulation, I oversaw projects and worked on-site daily alongside employees. I ensured deadlines were met, counted inventory daily, managed time-sheets, handled inspections, and coordinated directly with the superintendent and general contractors—while also managing funding and disciplinary actions on the job site.

As an agent with Symmetry Financial, I work with warm leads daily, speaking with prospects and asking about their past or current interests in life insurance products. I create a relationship that goes past the insurance product to give people comfort and familiarity, while attending daily Zoom meetings and nationwide calls.

At Globe Life Liberty National, I spoke with cold lead business owners daily and inquired about employee benefits with life insurance only provided by Globe Life. I managed relationships after the call with the owner and the employees, attended daily in-office meetings, and keep a strong focus on numbers, accountability, and time management.
