Cassidy will also advise agents on a spectrum of issues impacting their business, helping them meet future challenges and lay a strong, compliant foundation for success.

“Throughout my career, I have developed strong and lasting relationships with professionals in all aspects of this industry,” Cassidy said. “I maintain knowledge of local customs and applicable statutory requirements and apply these skills to identify risks by conclusion of fact. I look forward to providing our agents with guidance on industry trends, resources for growth and ongoing training and education.”
