I was born in Orlando, Florida, which was very convenient for trips to Disney! However, I grew up most of my life in Ohio and graduated from the Ohio State University.
After many years in corporate America, I made the transition to the insurance industry in 2019 and have loved every minute of the opportunity it provides to help our clients protect their assets and families. What I enjoy most about my role here at Paragon Insurance Group is leading an amazingly dedicated and incredibly passionate team that makes a difference every day in our clients’ lives!
As far as personal hobbies, I enjoy the pursuit of physical fitness including working out, martial arts or just playing sports with my kids. I’m a passionate NFL and college football fan, and you won’t find me ever missing an Ohio State Buckeyes game. With 3 very active kids, on the weekends I am usually shuttling them between activities or coaching their sports teams. We also love to travel together!

Being in the insurance industry has been a pleasant experience. After all, I enjoy helping people avoid financial devastation. Not only that, I get to wake up every day knowing I will be able to make a difference in someone’s life. I grew up here in Miami, Fl, so I know this community and its people well. While in school, you could find me playing sports with my friends or fishing in my backyard. However, nowadays, when I am not helping customers with their insurance needs, I like to spend my time at the library.
Anyone who knows me on a personal level knows that I am a sports fanatic–Let’s go HEAT! Something that most people don’t know about me is that I am a skilled juggler and my guilty pleasure is chocolate.

One of the things I have learned while working in the insurance industry is that not many people truly understand their coverage. That is why I make it a point to educate and inform my clients to make sure they have the right coverage for their lifestyle. I enjoy creating long-term relationships with my customers and pride myself in excellent customer service.
I was born in Medellin, Colombia before relocating to Miami, FL at a young age. That is when I developed my earliest passion–soccer. From playing and winning national championships in high school to refereeing and coaching local kids teams, it has always been a huge part of my life. I am still involved with one of our local soccer facilities and enjoy spending some of my Saturdays there.
On my downtime, you can find me spending quality time with my beautiful wife and our cat Mia (she loves attention). Whenever I have some spare time I like to read books and listen to podcasts that help me learn and grow.

I was born and raised in the Big Apple (NYC). What I most like about my job is being able to help clients find what they are looking for, and it’s rewarding when they show appreciation for providing a service to them. I enjoy it making a connection with the clients on everyday things in life; it just shows how all of us are human and enjoy good conversation!
