Background in the Trade

About me

From an early stage, I was drawn to the automotive world. Like many young guys, I enjoyed working on classics — and a few not-so-classic vehicles too. That interest led me to complete my auto mechanic apprenticeship and earn my mechanic’s license.

After owning my own business and working in management, I gained a deep understanding of the realities business owners face. I later transitioned into the insurance industry, where I combined my automotive background with more than 20 years of insurance experience to help auto repair shops, body shops, detailing businesses, and other automotive professionals better protect themselves against loss.

I remain passionate about helping clients in the automotive industry with insurance solutions built around real-world experience, practical insight, and a genuine understanding of how these businesses operate.

My approach

My approach is simple: I take the time to understand your business, review your coverage carefully, and provide honest recommendations based on your needs. I see myself as a Second Set of Eyes, looking for ways to improve coverage, reduce unnecessary costs, and make sure your insurance still works when you need it most. Even if your insurance is with another company, I am always happy to provide the Second Set of Eyes.

I will always look for savings where they make sense, but never at the expense of protection. I believe in best value over lowest price, because cheap insurance that doesn’t cover is no insurance at all.

Clients can expect clear communication, practical advice, and a focus on long-term protection rather than short-term savings. My goal is to help you feel confident that your coverage is working as hard as you are.

“I believe insurance should be reviewed regularly, not just at your yearly renewal or when there is a claim.”
