From 1991 to 2011 I owned and operated my own freight transportation business. My business began as an idea on how to move freight for importers at competitive prices. What was a good idea turned into a successful business that grew quickly. With the rapid growth came the need to hire employees to help keep my company's customers happy. With the additional growth came the added needs for the company and the employees, needs such as retirement planning for myself, healthcare for me and my employees, retirement plans for my employees, commercial insurance coverage. When I decided to close the company I wanted to use my experience to help other business owners with the same kind of challenges that I had faced. Fortunately, I was lucky enough to be hired by New York Life where I received extensive training to deal with the aforementioned needs of the Business Owner. I spent 3 years with New York Life and learned a lot in the process but I still wanted to expand my value by educating myself in other areas such as Commercial Insurance, Health Insurance, Workers Compensation, Legal Referrals and Business Valuations.
I am still a work in progress but I have now been licensed to act as an agent for Life, Health, Commercial and Workers Comp Insurance. I am an advocate of LegalShield because all business owners should have a legal resource for the legal possibilities encountered such as contract screening, delinquent accounts, lawsuits etc.
