Background

Brian began his insurance career in loss control and risk management for Fred Meyer, Inc., a large grocery chain in the Pacific Northwest. The opportunity to work in this capacity provided him with in-depth knowledge and understanding of the risks clients face every day.

As a former restaurant owner, Brian brings insight that is unmatched in his field of expertise. He understands not only the risks and insurance requirements, but what it takes to prosper as a business owner, including the importance of continuity and succession planning.

Brian specializes in the commercial nursery industry, metal fabrication, and provides an extensive level of expertise in the hospitality industry (e.g. B&Bs, restaurants, taverns, hotels/motels).

The importance of balancing life and work are important to Brian, with a focus on health, fitness, and nutrition. He enjoys snowboarding, hiking, camping, and takes on some of the more challenging mountain biking trails offered in Portland and the Pacific Northwest.
