Summary
I possess over 7 years of experience working as a licensed insurance agent. I have spent time in claims and service but the majority of my experience is in sales. My ability to build trust with customers and determination to become a product expert allowed me to earn several promotions and a leadership role within my company. The last 7 years have provided invaluable knowledge but I'm seeking a new challenge and environment to thrive in.
