EXPERIENCE | Michael has over thirty years experience in the group insurance and benefits industry. He has worked for several Fortune 500 companies in both service and sales capacities, including John Hancock, Prudential, and Aetna. Joining the HAA team in 2015 and working in what he considers the most rewarding time of his career, Michael utilizes the valuable experience and training he has gained across market segments and product lines.
SPECIALTY | Although the industry landscape has changed dramatically over the past few decades, one of the few constants is, and always will be, service. While there are certain things we can’t control – such as pricing/renewal increase, we can certainly control the service aspect and that is what we are most proud of. After price, it is the most important element in retaining business. The value we place on an agency relationship is unparalleled – with the goal of turning that relationship into a successful partnership. Michael embodies our slogan perfectly in his work, building relationships; delivering results.
YEARS IN INDUSTRY | 30+
JOB HIGHLIGHTS | Being an advocate for the agent – making them feel comfortable in their decision to place business with HAP. The main purpose of my position at HAA is to create, maintain, and strengthen agent relationships. To educate and motivate the agent to write and retain HAP business. While technology has become paramount, I believe we are in the service business. At the end of the day, it’s the people that make the difference and the highlights.
