About

Why Corridor?

I joined because I believe the very reason Corridor was is to provide the best possible outcomes for our clients. Selecting the right benefits is a challenging, stressful task left to business owners. If I can make that process easier, give our clients great coverage, and allow people to live happier, healthier lives I will be happy.

How do you prepare to meet a client?

I research. They rely on me to understand their business, and understand their point of view. Learning about who they are and their business lets me better predict what their priorities might be and how I can best serve them.

If you overheard a client describing us to another business owner one year in, what would you hope they say?

I hope they’d say something along the lines of: “I’ve dealt with a lot of brokers - the Advisors at Corridor are different. They are kind and engaged. They made it clear that giving me and my employees the best coverage and experience selecting it was more important to them than anything. They really care about my people.”

What are your interests and passions outside of Corridor?

Outside of Corridor, I cook, play the guitar and piano, run, and ski. I’m also recently an uncle!

Cook: working in a kitchen before college led to a love for cooking, baking, and eating. It’s a creative outlet and something I can get a little better at everyday.

Music: After years of piano lessons as a kid, I picked up the guitar during high school. It’s my way to be productive while procrastinating - I try to play at least ten minutes a day.

Run: Moving to NYC after college, I needed to find an inexpensive and accessible way to get outside and exercise. I found running and have become pretty passionate - I’m running the NYC marathon on Nov 1!

Ski: I learned to ski in Connecticut when I was 2,spent three years on a Ski Team in high school and left the east coast for college in Colorado. This has meant many days on the mountain and some irresponsible stunts.
