We asked some of our employees to share where they were at the beginning of their career in insurance and where they are now. Here's what they had to say.

“As I celebrate my 30th year in the Insurance industry, I can’t think of a better career choice. Where else can you make a difference, meet great people, travel the world, learn something new every day and have a blast doing it?”
- Laura Allen
Vice President, Southeast Region Binding
"Every day our industry brings new challenges and opportunities to learn, grow, compete and be successful. We are in a business that helps people when they need it most, securing the promise of putting their lives and businesses back together. Working for RPS has allowed me to work for a great company that believes in the value of mentorship and giving back to others less fortunate. Success in our industry requires a lot of hard work and perseverance. You learn quickly that you do not always win but when you compete with honesty and integrity you win more than you lose. I feel grateful and blessed to have a career that rewards you for helping others."
- Mike Kokonas
Area Vice President: Chicago Property


“Coming from a family of 10 with half of us being in the industry, it seemed like a natural fit. I truly enjoy my career due to the collaborative and driven people I’m surrounded by each day…”
- Mark Gallagher
Vice President, National Transportation
