Chad is by far one of the most dedicated and focused insurance marking and sales professionals I have had the pleasure of working with for over 15 years. He knows his product and strives for excellence in all his endeavors. Follow through and commitment are some of his best characteristics. Glad to have him as a colleague, friend and IIAPBC board director for over 10 years.
