Experienced insurance broker passionate about customer service and sales.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated insurance professional with extensive experience in the financial industry, particularly in sales and account management. My journey began with The Co-operators, where I excelled as a Financial and Insurance Advisor, helping clients navigate their insurance needs while exceeding annual premium goals. My commitment to client education and service earned me recognition as a top-tier advisor, and I developed a strong foundation in both personal and commercial insurance.
Throughout my career, I have embraced opportunities to grow and adapt, transitioning from mortgage brokerage back to insurance, where I believe my strengths lie. My roles at Hub International and A-ha Insurance have further honed my skills in managing client relationships and ensuring their needs are met effectively. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in a sales/service/account manager role within the Fintech or Digital Marketing sectors, where I can continue to provide exceptional service and drive business growth.
