As the Underwriting Director at Southern Integrity Underwriters, I bring over 30 years of industry expertise across underwriting, risk assessment, and client relationship management. Colleagues would describe me as strategic, tenacious, and compassionate, qualities that have enabled me to lead high-performing teams, foster lasting relationships, and deliver tailored solutions that align with each client’s unique needs. Throughout my career, I’ve navigated every angle of the workers' compensation and commercial insurance landscape. My experience spans founding a wholesale insurance brokerage, leading teams in risk management, and driving business growth across competitive markets. Some highlights include: - Founded Southern Integrity Underwriters, achieving high conversion rates and surpassing benchmarks for new commercial accounts. - Expanded regional operations at Arthur J. Gallagher, building a retail network that generated over 700 submissions in a year. - Developed AIG’s Small Business Workers' Compensation Program, generating $14M in gross written premium in its first year. I’m driven by creating impactful insurance solutions and continually strive to exceed expectations. My passion for underwriting management and excellence in client retention strategies fuels my drive to continually push the boundaries of what is possible in business.
