Summary

In December, I will be retiring from West Bend Insurance, after 40 years with the company. The last 37 years involved managing a Minnesota sales territory, calling on independent insurance agencies throughout the state. A part of the job I enjoyed was being on the road and seeing our Great State from behind the wheel, logging nearly 1.3 million miles over the course of those years. I am personable and outgoing, wishing to combine my interest in driving and engaging with people in a public transportation setting.
