Brandon Sheridan

I’ve been working in the insurance industry since 2012 and obtained my license in 2014. I focus on hard-to-place businesses with complex risks because they often can’t find brokers to help them. I spend time with my clients to learn their processes and how their business operates, so I know exactly what type of coverage they need. Every new issue is a learning opportunity and a chance for myself and my clients to improve.

My strengths are rooted in my self-study and self-motivation. I am largely self-taught in all aspects of what I do. I am a voracious reader and take courses on many different topics on an annual basis. I am a short-term goal setter and love to break large issues into micro-tasks, while teaching others to do the same.

I grew up in Santa Cruz, California, and while I lived only a few miles from the beach, I found myself escaping to the mountains of Big Sur on a weekly basis. I am a passionate backpacker and outdoorsman and love all things adventure. My wife also loves the outdoors, so we spend most of our free time looking for the next trail to hike, mountain to climb, or path to bike, along with our two adventure pups.

I’m also an avid fisherman and think early morning fishing while the fog is still lifting off the water is one of the best ways to start the day. One of my favorite quotes is by John Muir, "As long as I live, I will hear the birds and the winds and the waterfalls sing."
