FROM NEW GUY TO AN AGENCY OWNER
On August 31, 2016, I was welcomed into the insurance business. At the time, I could not have imagined where that first opportunity would lead.
Ten years later, I’m incredibly grateful for every client, family, business owner, mentor, carrier representative and referral partner who has been part of this journey.
Four years ago, I took another leap of faith and founded Sentinel Advisors with a simple mission: provide honest guidance, real choices and personal service while helping people properly protect what matters most.
Building an independent insurance agency has not always been easy, but it has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. Every policy represents a person, a family or a business that has trusted me, and that is a responsibility I never take lightly.
Thank you to everyone who helped give me my start. Thank you to my family for standing beside me. Most importantly, thank you to every client who has trusted Sentinel Advisors. You made these milestones possible.
Here’s to 10 years of relationships, lessons and service—and four years of proudly building Sentinel Advisors. I’m excited about what the next decade will bring!
