Prior to becoming an Independent Insurance Agent, I worked as an employee for one of Arizona’s leading Medicare Advantage Health Plans for over 16 years. Early on in my career I worked as a Territory Manager in Northern Arizona, Medical Claims Examiner, Consumer Specialist and a Customer Service Representative. In 2012 the company had a statewide lay off. This could not have happened at a better time in my career. As a single parent of 2 children, I felt it was time for me to spread my wings and become a broker. The severance package I received allowed me to do just that. In June of 2012. Being a broker allows me to service the unique needs of the individual, not the needs of the insurance company. I am able to offer you a non-bias consultation of the insurance plans that are available to you.
My mission is to help seniors make the right Medicare plan decision for their individual needs. I am dedicated to matching the right plan for you. This dedication is the reason why so many prospective members, like you, have become members.
