As Dasher’s President Emeritus, I coach the executive team and lead special projects and incentives. I use my experience as a people leader and passion for creating an environment that brings out the best in the members of the team. Most of my prior experience is in the insurance industry, where I developed expertise as well in business management, strategy development, process optimization, and performance measurement. I also have both public and private sector experience in insurance, grant making, and law enforcement. Before joining Dasher, I oversaw eight regional operations totaling $7 billion in revenue for Nationwide Insurance as field operations vice president. In this role, I was accountable for the achievement of growth and profit plans for property and casualty nationally.
As executive director of an anti-crime authority, I led Pennsylvania’s successful effort to reduce auto theft through grant making, law enforcement training, and public awareness.
In our community, I have served as chair of the United Way of the Capital Region Board of Directors, and in board leadership positions for the Pinnacle Health System, Pinnacle Health Medical Group, the United Way Foundation and the Foundation for Enhancing Communities. I’m also closely involved with the Brethren Housing Association, which rehabilitates apartments for single women with children and helps them build a future. I am co-author of the Amazon best-selling book “The Talent Pool: How to Find and Keep Dedicated People While Making a Lasting Impact,” which describes Dasher’s proven approach to finding and enabling economically fragile employees to become extraordinary team members.
I’m a graduate of Swarthmore College and hold an MBA from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, along with Certified Property-Casualty Underwriter and Certified Life Underwriter designations.
