Animals are my passion. Insurance is my expertise. Companion Protect is the perfect marriage between the two.

As Board Chair of Companion Protect, I’ve put my more than 35 years of insurance industry experience to work alongside a talented team of industry veterans with extensive knowledge and expertise in building and operating best-in-class, large, consumer-focused insurance programs.

The result? A product that is disrupting the pet insurance sector to offer pet parents a comprehensive product without the gimmicks and ‘gotchas‘ of typical pet insurance programs. At Companion Protect, we believe that no pet parent should ever be stuck facing terrible decisions about not being able to provide care for their furry family members based on cost.

I’m proud to work alongside a passionate team of experts with extensive leadership in the insurance, animal welfare, and consumer marketing spaces. The Companion Protect team boasts diverse experience ranging from product design specialization to negotiating partnerships in insurance and reinsurance. They are also committed to delivering world-class service through solution centers that leverage technology to deliver the ultimate customer experience.

My lifelong passion for animals expands beyond Companion Protect. I proudly serve as a member of the board of the Humane Society of the United States, chair the board of Great Plains SPCA, and have nearly 20 years of companion animal welfare experience.
