I am a 4th generation insurance broker, so it was inevitable that I would have a career in insurance. I became an insurance broker over 30 years ago and I've worked in every area of an insurance brokerage throughout the years. I have also obtained my CIP and CAIB designations to further my knowledge of insurance.

My experience and education aside, I truly love what I do. I enjoy taking the time to get to know my clients. The better I know the individual needs of my clients, the better I can assist them with choosing the best insurance solutions.

I’ve been working in the insurance industry for 16 years. It’s easy to remember that number because I started my insurance career after my daughter was born.

I love living in Medicine Hat. It’s a place where you can really get to know everyone. Creating relationships in the community is what helps me do my job well. I can really get to know people and find out solutions for the problems they never even thought about.

When I am not working, you will find me usually playing taxi driver to my four kids, driving them to dance, soccer, hockey and taekwondo.
