What’s your background?:

With over 15 years of passionate involvement in the property and casualty insurance sector, I bring a wealth of experience to the table. Renowned for my relational strengths and strategic thinking, I provide clients with value-added services, specializing in insurance for the construction, life sciences, and manufacturing industries. Alongside my professional endeavors as a broker at Apex Risk & Insurance Services, I am deeply committed to community service, serving on multiple nonprofit boards. A graduate in Business Finance from Point Loma Nazarene University, my 20-year marriage to Kim and our three wonderful children are the cornerstones of my personal life. Actively engaged in our community, we are members of Shoreline Church in San Clemente, CA.

What do you enjoy doing when you’re not working?

Outside of work, I find joy in various activities. I actively participate in my kids’ sports as a coach, connect with friends on the golf course, and relish rich conversations over a good meal. These pursuits not only contribute to a balanced lifestyle but also add depth to my personal interests and connections.
