Saying Jackie works hard for our clients is an understatement. In 2002, Jackie started building relationships with the healthcare clients of Lerner, Csernai and Fath Financial and has not stopped since. She not only maintains current group health, life and disability clients but also aids in attracting new clients. While creating group proposals and plan designs to meeting one-on-one with clients, Jackie still finds time to engage in continuing education and yearly certifications. Staying up to date regarding healthcare reform is imperative since she works with clients ranging from senior citizens to small businesses.
Jackie cherishes spending time with her family and friends and being an avid Detroit Tiger fan, she makes sure she attends at least one game per season.
