Attached, is a resume of my employment history as a business owner before I sold my last one about a year or so ago. What is not clearly mentioned is my recent experience as a Pennsylvania licensed insurance broker that required me to take a few not-so-easy exams to get those insurance licenses; of which I passed in the top 4-5% testing scores the first time through. Once I got my insurance licenses, I was trained by a very highly regarded insurance company (Insphere Insurance Solutions) that taught me the micro details of making 400 cold calls a week and presenting insurance options to new clients in their homes and businesses. With this recent client training from Insphere Insurance Solutions as a 1099 agent/broker and my 20+ years of auto and auto parts sales experience, I feel that this is the next logical step to elevate my highest and best communicative talents to the next level.

Highlights:

Accomplishments In 1984, I created an auto parts business in Pittsburgh, Pa 15206 (Import Parts Distributor) from scratch, which I later sold in 1991. It is still in operation today as a major supplier to other auto parts stores and automotive repair shops. In 1991, I designed and physically built a car dealership facility on a vacant lot to begin a new business from nothing that I recently sold. I was a member on the board of the Pennsylvania Auto Dealers Association for several years and I wrote a regular monthly column in their Dealer magazine. I also spoke at National Independent Auto Dealer Association yearly conventions for state based dealer associations. I am a bonded Pennsylvania Motor Vehicle Title Agent, a Licensed Pennsylvania Vehicle Safety Inspector, and a Licensed Pennsylvania Insurance Agent; as well as a former member of the Society of Automobile Engineers.
