Canadian Insurance Professional | Personal Lines & Small Business Underwriting | New business, renewals, endorsements | Solid record of productivity & performance | Demonstrated leadership in sharing knowledge/mentoring

I enable diplomatic and tactful communication and confidently negotiate strategic risk selection, while promoting and aligning with my current company’s core values. Additionally, I exhibit collaboration skills and promote transparency amongst my peers and colleagues. I am a strategic decision maker, considering the current trends when promoting profitable underwriting risk selection.

Being adaptable, hardworking, efficient and detail oriented is crucial within the underwriting role. With the fast-changing trends within the industry I keep myself apprised of these changes and adjust as required to ensure the company’s reputation, overall growth and broker partner relationships remain intact.

I take pride in my expertise by being a mentor to junior underwriters, onboarding new hires, fostering relationships within the team, and guiding broker partners to understand the company’s underwriting rules, guidelines, products, and workflows.
