Brady started in the insurance and bonding industry in 2007, with a special focus on contractors. Brady’s family has had a strong presence in the state of Utah within the construction community since the 1950’s. He likes the hard work the industry demands, and the reward of being able to see contractors change how the world looks. Brady works with all types of contractors on both insurance and surety bonding, such as subcontractors, specialty contractors, suppliers, and general contractors-both residential and commercial. He works closely with his clients in providing solutions to challenging exposures, such as multi-family, condo exposures and potential construction defect exposures. He writes all lines of insurance coverages for the commercial and residential sectors, including WRAP policies, both OCIP’s and CCIPS in some of Utah’s larger residential projects and multi-family projects.

Brady made an investment in himself to better serve his clients by attending The Hartford School of Insurance in 2007. He also pursued an Associate of Science degree and Bachelor of Science degree in accounting from the University of Utah to better serve his bonded clients. Brady participates on different construction committees, and provides support to the Associated General Contractors.

Outside the office, Brady prides himself on his family – his wife, Ashley, sons Korvin and Foster, and his girl, Maeve. They enjoy going up to the cabin and barbequing, or going down to St. George for a short getaway. Brady also enjoys riding Harleys and side-by-sides, watching sports, and going golfing.

In 2013 Aaron was awarded, "Agent of the Year" by the Utah Association of Independent Insurance Agents.

"Businesses face a labyrinth of liabilities and I love working with business owners to think through the exposures unique to their circumstances and then crafting the appropriate coverages to meet their needs and budget."

Aaron is married and the father of 4 children. In his time off he enjoys exploring Utahs many trails and mountains in his side-by-side.

My dream vacation is in Moab with my friends, moving at about 3 miles an hour in a side-by-side, climbing through the rocks and taking in the sunshine and beautiful red rock canyons.

I have never delivered a life insurance check to a grieving family, but I have insured several businesses that have suffered a claim so big, that if not for the insurance, would have been forced to close. Instead, the insurance allowed them to pay liability claims and rebuild after a large loss, saving jobs and dreams along the way.

My favorite quote was first given by Theodore Roosevelt in 1910, in a speech titled Citizenship in a Republic. The first line reads, "It is not the critic who counts..." He goes on to declare, "The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena..." Check it out, it might become your favorite too.

Jim grew up in the insurance business, as his father and grandfather (also named James Dickson) were insurance agents here in Utah. His specialty is commercial insurance for all types of businesses including contractors, trucking companies, manufacturers, and distributors.

After graduating from the U of U Jim worked as an intern with the Aetna Life Insurance Company for two years. As an intern, he was able to learn the finer points of employee benefits including group health and specialty life insurance products.

In 1990 he was awarded the Young Agent of the Year award by the Independent Insurance Agents of Utah.

I was working at the University of Utah and at Mervyn's department store when my Dad (Larry McCain) came to see me and asked me to come work for him. I told him I really had no intention of working in the insurance field, but he needed the help and it was a way to reconnect with my dad. I started working with him in 1994 when he eventually sold his practice to First Security and then later to Wells Fargo (Accordia) and I was sold with the agency. That's when we met up with the old Affiliated Insurance gang and we all went to Accordia. Later my Dad retired and Mark Austin bought his book and we sold or merged with Beehive, and here I still am

Ginger began her insurance career in Salt Lake City in 1982 as a commercial lines rater for Travelers Insurance and quickly moved on to claims. She obtained her claims adjuster license and worked as a desk adjuster for Travelers adjusting workers comp and property claims for 2 years before she and her husband left the snow and moved to St. George, UT for warmer weather. There she discovered the agency side of the insurance business and became licensed in Property/Casualty and Health lines of coverage . She has worked as a commercial lines account manager/producer in the agency realm since 1987 helping to place and service commercial business. Before joining our team she successfully managed a small agency while the owner was out of the country for a year an a half serving a mission for his church.

She has always felt that claims are where we either shine or fade - the rest is just paperwork. Ginger loves her work in the insurance industry and finds joy in helping her customers obtain the products and services they need to help their businesses succeed.
