I started in
the Insurance business in 1993, marketing life insurance directly to individuals
and small businesses over the phone. Over the next ten years, I built
an agency that also provided Auto, Home and Commercial Insurance to our clients.
My son and I helped thousands of families and small business owners with their
insurance needs. I turned my agency over to my son in 2003. My focus turned
to Health Insurance and Living Trusts. As a result, my clients have been
well protected against serious financial loss.
My greatest satisfaction
is my 42 years married to my wife, Flo. My son, Erich, was born while I was
stationed in Germany and my daughter, Tamara, born at the Air Force Academy,
is now a Veterinary Tech. My three grandsons keep us busy and young.
I
grew up in Ohio, learning solid values that I practice to this day. Music
has been my passion since I was in school. Following in my father’s
footsteps, I worked in a factory first. Needing to advance, I attended
Wright State University before joining the U.S.Air Force. I served as
a Combat Photographer in Southeast Asia and as the photographer for Tuskegee
Airman General “Chappie” James at NORAD, Cheyenne Mountain.
For the second half of my Air Force career, I served as a Nurse Recruiter and
Officer Recruiter. In 1983, our Springfield, Ohio office was the best U.S.Air
Force Recruiting office in the nation.
When
I retired from the Air Force, we moved to Colorado and started a retail
kiosk operation. Flo’s career focused on Human Resources with Kmart.
After years of successful careers, our passion to serve others led us
to insurance, helping our son with his career and raising a grandson. Along
with being professional grandparents, I am active in our church with an emphasis
on Crown Financial Ministries and Flo excels at visitation and hospitality.
Today,
I am focused on helping families make the right decisions to protect their physical
and financial health. Introduction of Health Savings Accounts has created
a tremendous opportunity for individuals and businesses to lower the cost of
their health care, receive a generous tax break, and save money for future medical
expenses. By introducing market competition into the medical marketplace,
HSAs will force doctors and hospitals to begin posting their prices and competing
for their customers’ business. As anyone with a basic understanding
of economics can tell you, competition leads to lower prices and higher quality
for all.
Too
often, government programs encourage dependence and discourage personal responsibility.
Health savings accounts reward people for saving for their future, and further
reward them for taking care of their health. The person that puts aside
money in their HSA and then doesn’t use it will be rewarded with tax deductions,
tax-deferred growth and a savings account that can be used to pay medical expenses
during retirement. I am a big believer that individuals should take greater
responsibility for their future, instead of relying on the government “nanny”
to take care of them.
I
believe that HSAs are the best thing to happen to healthcare in a long time.
They save people money, encourage responsible behavior, and force the
medical providers to compete for our business. Our mission is to
find our clients the best plans that meet their needs, at the lowest premiums
available, and to make the process easy. By helping you save money and
have peace of mind, we expect to continue to earn your business for life.
