I founded Rising Insurance Star Executives (R.I.S.E.) in 2017 to be a springboard for other rising leaders looking to grow their careers in insurance. We are a community of superstars finding ways to share our innovative ideas, spread a new message about who the insurance industry is, and propel our careers by lifting each other up. RISE has over 8,000 members globally, 4 Committees, an Ambassador Program, Mentorship Program, personal and professional development training and webinars, dozens of local Pop Ups (networking & educational events), and an annual Leadership Summit. We also publish the Elite 50 Internships and the RISE Awards - 35 Under 35, Mentor of the Year, Innovator of the Year, LEAD Award, Impact Award. Join Us: https://community.riseprofessionals.com/

Since 1962, Gallagher Bassett has led the way in risk and claims management solutions. From day one, we have been committed to developing a carrier partnership approach different from the traditional TPA model. That has resulted in a dedicated cross-functional team focused entirely on the unique goals and objectives of insurance carriers, MGAs, and alternative risk managers. As one of the largest TPAs in the world, we combine best-in-class claims management consultation with best-in-class decision-support tools to help our clients reduce costs, access the talent they need, and deliver claims outcomes that exceed their expectations. We guide. We guard. We go beyond. It’s who we are. It’s what we do for you.
