Summary
Strategic Marketing & Risk Management Leader | Expert in Protecting Passion Assets As Senior Vice President, Private Client Practice at Insurance Office of Central Ohio, part of Foundation Risk Partners (the 16th largest Insurance and Risk Management operation in the U.S.), I specialize in simplifying insurance for successful families and individuals. With a keen understanding of the market, I focus on the protection of exceptional homes, fine arts, jewelry, and other passion assets, making insurance as approachable and transparent as other financial services. My holistic approach to risk management goes beyond tangible assets to address life’s unpredictable challenges, offering solutions for disability income, life insurance, and long-term care. In leading the High Net Worth Personal Lines practice, my goal is to empower clients with clarity and confidence in their insurance decisions, while ensuring comprehensive coverage that aligns with their unique lifestyles. I was proud to be the first person in Ohio to earn the Certified Personal Risk Manager (CPRM) designation, a testament to my expertise in managing the insurance needs of affluent clients. Before transitioning into high-net-worth personal lines, I built my expertise in e-commerce and marketing, working with prominent organizations such as Home Shopping Network, LBrands, WeddingChannel.com, dELiA*s, and The Joffrey Ballet. My experience spans across retail, consumer goods, entertainment, and software, consistently improving the bottom line for both established enterprises and start-ups. I hold a cum laude degree from Harvard University and an MBA from the Kellogg School of Management at Northwestern University. Outside of my professional pursuits, I am deeply engaged in my community, serving on boards and committees for organizations including The McCoy Center for the Performing Arts, The New Albany Chamber of Commerce, The Columbus Museum of Art, and BalletMet. ________________________________________ Key Skills & Expertise: • High Net Worth Risk Management & Personal Lines • Leadership & Team Building • Collections Management, Specializing in Jewelry & Fine Arts Protection • Elevated Client Service & Claims Management • Engaging with C-Suite Executives & High-Profile Individuals • Start-up & Turnaround Leadership Certifications: • Certified Personal Risk Manager (CPRM) I am always excited to connect with professionals and organizations focused on innovation, risk management, and enhancing the client experience across industries.
