In 1991 I became active in the insurance industry as a licensed New York State Property and Casualty Insurance Broker/Agent and in 1993 I earned my New York State Life, Accident and Health Broker license. I started working for Personal Coverage, Inc in 2004 doing what I love to do which is helping people address their insurance needs. Currently I am pursuing my AAI designation and hope to complete it this year. I live in Stillwater with my husband Lou and our 3 children; Brandon, Hannah and Dillon.
