I have worked in commercial insurance since being hired by Western Financial Group in 2012 (then Falkins Insurance). Previous to my time in insurance I obtained a Bachelor of Science with Distinction in Geography from the University of Victoria. Upon finishing University in a recession & having no prospective careers I went backpacking in South America. When I returned to Canada, I briefly did taxes and then attended Sauder School of Business in the Diploma of Accounting Program. After completing two thirds of the program, I moved to Fernie BC & landed in my current profession. I bring a unique perspective to insurance being well versed on environmental hazards & is considerate of profit and expenses for each business I work with.
I offer an honest and transparent explanation of misunderstood coverages and offer options to fit all clients needs. While working in the Kootenays, I have worked diligently to develop long standing relationships with established and new organizations.
My clients include builders, contractors, hospitality, developers, not for profits/charities, landlords, sports & fitness outfits, golf courses, short term rentals, stratas/condos, retailers, utility providers, campgrounds, farms, resorts, pharmacies, medical clinics & more.
I am currently licensed for risks in BC & Alberta, although I should have Saskatchewan soon. When I am not working I can be found traveling the globe with my husband & son, mountain biking, snowboarding, cheering on my son at hockey (or soccer) games, gardening, cooking, running, camping or doing yoga.
