About Desiree
I’ve been in the insurance industry for 39 years, and it’s been an incredibly fulfilling journey. I started my career working with a variety of products, including auto, homeowners, life, disability, and even some workers compensation insurance plans. Over the years, I found my niche in group benefits, which has been my primary focus ever since.
I work with level and self-funded employer groups, though I also have extensive experience with fully insured plans. My goal is always to bring value to our clients through deep analysis, cost-saving strategies, and exceptional service. I also hold my RHU (Registered Health Underwriter) designation, which has helped deepen my knowledge and skill set in this field.
What I love most about my work is building strong, lasting relationships with clients, diving into reports to find solutions and savings, and helping members navigate their claims. Being part of the incredible team at Leavitt only makes the experience that much better.
Outside of work, I’m very active in my community. I’m a member of a group called Hudson Beach Girls—we kayak, do arts and crafts, volunteer locally, and enjoy regular lunches and dinners together. I’m also involved in Florida’s broader Hudson community, helping connect people to resources like housing, childcare, and odd jobs. Being part of a supportive and engaged community brings me a lot of joy and purpose.
