Welcome to my website! As an independent insurance agent specializing in long-term care insurance, my focus is to help you get coverage that is right for you. Over the last 25 years, I have learned the best approach is a casual approach utilizing today’s world of evolving communications where our goals can be accomplished in the most efficient manner. No pressure. I’ll help you shop and compare a variety of policies from traditional long-term care insurance, long-term care partnership policies and to the new “hybrid policies.” My philosophy is “It’s All About You.”
