I am a property and casualty insurance producer who works closely with business innovators and investors. While I support general industries including manufacturing, distribution and construction, my focus is life sciences (medical devices, clinical research organizations, therapeutics), general technology, healthcare, and professional services (law, accounting, engineering). My goal is to develop an intimate understanding of your business and create a customized insurance program to properly manage risk.
I build and run CEO forums in the technology and life sciences sectors. My network tends to be professionals that work at the intersection of innovators and investors. I seek relationships with venture capitalists, private equity funds, and Angels, and look for companies with intellectual property portfolios. All benefit by my ability to selectively add people to my forums and manage strategic connections.
