I’m a licensed public insurance adjuster with over 20 years of experience in first-party property claims handling, including residential, commercial, and catastrophe losses, now the founder of a multi-state public adjusting firm where I advocate for policyholders through detailed damage assessments, policy interpretation, and settlement negotiations. My background includes senior roles with national carriers and independent adjusting firms, managing multimillion-dollar claims and providing litigation support through depositions, mediation, and expert reporting. I’m also a certified appraiser and umpire, offering impartial evaluations in disputed losses. I hold the CPCU (Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter), AIC (Associate in Claims), and SPPA (Senior Professional Public Adjuster) designations—credentials which reflect advanced expertise in property insurance, ethical claims handling, and complex coverage analysis.
