Individual Health Insurance
No one plans to get sick or hurt, but most people need medical care at some point. Health insurance covers these costs and protects you from very high expenses.
Independent Producer for Health & Life Insurance
I love reading (I read 40 books in 2024), music (I play guitar, piano, banjo, mandolin, and several stranger instruments), cooking (Indian food is my go-to), gardening (mainly houseplants and vegetables. Everything else is a waste of time.), and travel (I have been to 28 US states and 15 countries).
I worked in restaurants and as a caddie (hospitality & customer service) before moving to Chicago and working in a Medicare call center. My experience is grounded in customer service and with my time in Chicago selling Medicare, I have great understanding of Medicare. I view my job as a customer service/ advisor role so that I can help my clients find a good fit for their own needs.
Working in a Medicare call center, I learned there that much of this industry is just agents trying to sell a policy regardless of its effect on the client. This led me to firmly believe that the position of [Medicare] Insurance Agent should be one of an advisor rather than a salesman. That is the approach I take with every client. If the policy will not benefit them, I send them on their way, even if it could be an “easy sale”.
Fun Fact: I broke my femur in a stair-jumping contest when I was 2 years old.
