I’m a commercial insurance account manager at ARCW. I primarily manage a portfolio of VIP commercial accounts and take great pride in supporting our clients with tailored insurance solutions. My career in the insurance industry began in 2007 as a loss control intern for workers compensation. After obtaining my insurance license, I transitioned into underwriting and later expanded my experience across all commercial coverages.

Over the years, I’ve continued my professional development and earned designations as a Construction Risk Insurance Specialist (CRIS) and an Accredited Advisor in Insurance (AAI). Since joining ARCW in August 2022, I’ve been grateful to be part of such a supportive and knowledgeable team.

Interestingly, my career path didn’t begin in insurance. I earned an Associate of Science in Criminal Justice with a Certificate of Achievement in Law Enforcement from Bristol Community College in Massachusetts. Although my original plan was to pursue a career in law enforcement, my path shifted, and I’ve found great fulfillment in the insurance industry. I’m currently continuing my education through Southern New Hampshire University, where I’m pursuing a Bachelor of Arts in Forensic Psychology. While it’s not directly related to insurance, it’s a field I find fascinating and personally enriching.

What I enjoy most about my role is applying my industry knowledge to help clients secure the coverage they need and ensure they fully understand the protections in place. Providing clarity and peace of mind is something I find truly rewarding.

Outside of work and school, I enjoy spending time with my horse, teaching horseback riding lessons, boating with my husband, and attending car shows with our 1989 Mustang. I was born in Louisiana, raised in Rhode Island, and relocated to Florida in 2020. My husband and I have been together for 20 years, and we share our home with a dog, a cat, and a horse—making life full and meaningful both professionally and personally.
