Health Advocate, Author, Wife and Mom
My experiences in life have guided me where I am today. I have been in the health insurance field for many years, but had never experienced any health event to cause myself or any family member to ever come close to reaching a deductible, much less an out-of-pocket maximum or out-of-network extra expenses. I was a cheerleader promoting health insurance, until I had several issues that were financially, physically and emotionally very stressful. Compassion comes from experience and those experiences taught me the shortcuts and tricks to navigating this crazy world of health care. Having the employer/insurer/broker and personal vantage points, I am able to look at scenarios from all angles.

I’m Amy and I am a benefits addict.
I support small to medium sized employers (especially in the non-profit sector) in designing employee benefits packages to help recruit and retain quality employees in a competitive marketplace. I love details! In addition to spreadsheets, I love promoting wellness and health advocacy.
As a breast cancer survior, I know what it is like to be paralyzed with daunting decisions, trying to decipher benefits and billings while trying to navigate a crazy health care system!
