Caring Candace – Your Medicare Expert

I grew up in a small town outside of Syracuse, Brewerton, in Central New York, where my father owned an insurance brokerage. He was always there to answer his clients’ questions, whether at the grocery store or during family dinners. His dedication to helping people with their insurance needs in our small community inspired me. Since obtaining my insurance license after graduate school in 1999, I have carried forward that same small-town level of service to my clients.

I began my career in the insurance industry working with Medicare and Long-Term Care and later expanded into employee benefits. Over time, I had the opportunity to travel across the country, training sales agents and managers on insurance products for a large carrier. I also consulted with major hospital systems, helping them navigate employee benefit programs.

After having two children (which made traveling a bit more challenging!), I witnessed my own parents struggle with their Medicare options. That experience led me to focus on helping others with this important decision. Now, with over two decades of experience, I have earned a reputation as a professional, honest, and ethical insurance agent. Most of my clients refer me to friends, which is the greatest compliment I can receive.

I’ve proudly called St. Petersburg home for almost 20 years and am actively involved in many aspects of the community.
