Ack! Now there’s two of me!

I am a 25+ year business owner, a 20 year risk financing veteran and a 17 year Certified Insurance Counselor. I’ve been privileged to have a decades-long affiliation with the commercial litigation law firm Rosenfeld & Kaplan LLP in varying capacities from non-testifying expert on insurance matters to litigation support.

Additionally, I have attained many recognized and advanced technical designations in risk management and insurance: Certified Risk Manager, Certified School Risk Manager, Associate in Commercial Underwriting, Associate in Risk Management, Associate in Risk Management, Enterprise-Wide Risks, Associate in Risk Management for Public Entities and Associate in Insurance Services. I earned a Bachelors in Fine Arts degree from New York University and am currently a Masters of Science in Management graduate candidate at Salve Regina University., with a 4.0 average.

Today I keep busy consulting with individuals, non-profit organizations and business owners on management topics and financing of risk, consulting with legal counsel on various insurance related litigation, providing claim settlement assistance services. I write on various insurance and management topics for this site and others.

On this site, I share some of my thoughts and experiences on subjects that are of interest to me: the optimal use of insurance, financial risk management (including investment portfolio design), and small business risk management.
