My name is Mason Hontz. I have worked as a clerk, a laborer, and I got the opportunity to shadow a Independent/Cat Adjuster for a year to start my career as an independent claims adjuster. I have been on many deployments throughout 2023 dealing with wind storms, hail storms, and flooding. Through 2024 I have worked claims from February to October.
