I've worked on the E&S side of the insurance industry for 23 years with the past 13 being at Monarch. I have a Mathematics degree from CSUN and I currently live in Sherman Oaks with my lovely wife Sharon. Some of my hobbies include playing golf, watching any kind of sporting event, working out and, of course, the occasional trip to Las Vegas for fun.
I have been in the insurance industry since 1992. I started at Monarch in December of 1992 and have been here since. I started as a file clerk and have worked my way up into a commercial underwriter. I am a single mother of a beautiful 3 year old daughter. In my spare time I enjoy watching sports, stalking Brad Pitt and hanging out with my family.
I am married & have a daughter, Tina, who is a Family Practice Physician in Seattle, Washington. I teach Black & White Photo Lab one night a week at Burbank Adult School. I golf at first light. I have been underwriting commercial property, commercial liability, and inland marine risks for 35 years. I currently produce and underwrite commercial property, commercial liability, and commercial inland marine business.

SAN DIEGO |

I started my insurance career right here in beautiful San Diego as a personal lines retail agent. After 3 years I took a 2-year break from the insurance business. I re-entered the industry on the E & S Company side in 1991 and occupied many positions from data entry to marketing to various underwriting (casualty, property, and garage). In the 11-1/2 years I was with the company my travels took me from the home office in Columbus, OH to help open a regional office in Phoenix, AZ in 1997. In 2004 I then joined the wholesale side with Monarch, back here in sunny San Diego where it all started. When I'm not working I enjoy a round of golf or visiting the lovely sights of Southern California with my wife.

I grew up and attended school from 1st grade through college in Tucson, Arizona. After college I moved to Los Angeles and have worked in the Excess & Surplus Lines wholesale industry since 1975. I've worked at Monarch E & S Insurance Services since 1986. I have a second home in Palm Springs that makes it very convenient for me to work from our Rancho Mirage office occasionally and I hope to work from there on a more permanent basis in the near future. In my spare time, I enjoy traveling, going to the movies, trying new restaurants, playing three-card poker and most outdoor activities.
I attended Riverside Community College and from there moved on to work for a wholesale insurance company at an entry level position. I moved up quickly to an underwriter position and soon moved on to another large wholesaler where I experienced the insurance industry through the soft and hard markets. Now, ten years later, I am a SR. Underwriter here at Monarch E&S where many opportunities prevail in learning more about our industry. Through insurance carrier seminars and conferences I am exposed to the newest programs and feel quite confident in my knowledge of the marketplace and how better to place your business. |
