Paving the Way

When you partner with Holmes Murphy, you’ll be represented by some of the industry’s most knowledgeable, experienced professionals. Our Executive Committee members top the list and are true game changers!

Our ownership model is unique in this industry. We bring young talent in and go all in to support them on their career journey. All of us have been the beneficiaries of a mentor who took us under their wings and helped us be successful, so now we do the same. It’s about paying it forward.

I had mentors who helped me understand the business, and that insurance is not a product — we are trying to sell an experience. At Holmes Murphy, you’re a steward of a special thing and, at some point, the goal is to hand that to somebody else.

We’re very entrepreneurial in how we grow and hire as a company. Everyone has the opportunity to advance and perpetuate this business. It’s central to our culture to provide a career path for every single employee. I’ve always been motivated by delivering for both our clients and my teammates.
