We assemble and manage employee health benefit programs along with commercial business insurance (liability, property, umbrella, workers comp., etc.). Ideal customers are small to mid-sized businesses that want a hands-on insurance broker and partner. We also do personal insurance lines such as homeowners, auto, umbrella, Mexican insurance, and more. Ideal client is one that longs for continuous program and policy support from their agent without calling a 1-800 number. We build strong relationships with our clients and direct access to us 24/7 365 days a year.
Who we want to be referred to
Ideal referral partner is someone that is committed to building a meaningful relationship that leads to authentic recommendations that are exchanged by both parties. Anyone that is connected to business owners, non-profits, HR leadership, and C-Suite executives. Key services include employee health benefits, business insurance, personal insurance, and more. Let's get together and see how we can support each other!

After over a decade and a half working for a Fortune 500 in sales, consulting, and regional management, I made a decision that my happiness was more valuable than climbing a corporate ladder. I wanted something new, something that enabled me to directly help people without the corporate "red tape." Here I am today at Benefit Intelligence, a boutique brokerage that upholds ethics, transparency, and clients' interests at heart. Today, I have a tool box full of solutions so that members of our community can mitigate unforeseen risks and preserve their way of life.
