What drives your passion for Innovation?

Innovation, to me, is the engine that propels industries forward, especially in the dynamic world of insurance. My passion for innovation stems from its transformative power – the ability to turn challenges into opportunities, and ideas into tangible solutions.

Having worked in Insurtech, I’ve witnessed firsthand how inventive approaches can revolutionize traditional practices, making processes more efficient and customer-centric. This fuels my drive to foster an environment where new ideas are not just encouraged, but celebrated, leading to groundbreaking developments that benefit both professionals and clients in the insurance industry.

 What’s your vision for the committee this year? What’s exciting?

My vision for the Innovation Committee this year is to create a place where insurance professionals can both contribute and benefit from a collective pool of forward-thinking ideas. What excites me the most is the prospect of harnessing our collective talents to not only keep pace with the rapid changes in the insurance industry but to be the trailblazers that define its future.

I aim to focus on three core areas: firstly, by introducing cutting-edge technologies and methodologies for folks to present to their organization; secondly, promoting a culture of creative problem-solving and continuous learning through brainstorming sessions; and finally, just having a bit of fun 🙂
