Let get to know Mollie a little better!
How did you get into the insurance field?
Like many professionals, I didn’t dream of being an insurance broker when I grew up. 😊
But I “landed” in the insurance field when I was 20-years-old and immediately found it a good fit. I felt like it was a natural in the industry. I could use my technical and analytical strengths while utilizing my desire to help people, care for them, and make a difference in the community. I have met many different people and learned how the industries they are passionate about function, which is so fun!
What do you feel are your greatest strengths in servicing your clients?
I have developed skills in my professional career that have helped me understand and help my clients better; these include empathy, independence, and recognizing that each client has different needs. I also hold a firm belief that a one-size-fits-all approach to servicing clients doesn’t work. Being able to quickly adapt and think outside of the box and find solutions tailored for each client is the key to my approach in client services.
What caused you to become interested in the commercial property industry?
In 2020, I recognized a similar opening in the commercial real estate and property management industry. I could meet all different business owners and help them find a space or services their needs in their current location as tenants. After 20 years in my previous profession, it is exciting to meet a new but similar challenge. I love that in commercial property management, I can help our clients showcase their industry or specific business while also using my technical and analytical strengths.
What are you most passionate about as a professional?
I am passionate about being someone and working with people who value integrity, trust, experience, discretion, innovation, and independence.
How would you spend a perfect day when you’re off work?
I’d start with a mountain hike. Of course, gorgeous views are a must because I annoyingly identify as a #fakephotographer. Hehe! 😜📸
I’d follow that up with an afternoon spent in the sun on a kayak, or a sailboat, at one of the Cascade Lakes, in beautiful Central, Oregon. In case you can’t tell, I’m obsessed with being outdoors. It’s my happy place!
What do you love most about the Central Oregon business community?
I LOVE that Central Oregon business owners are traditionally scrappy, loyal, passionate, and independent. They’re a ‘no BS’ group, and I enjoy working with them. The Work hard, play hard mentality is my favorite part of living and working in greater Bend.
