From Dave, About Dave:
I have been in insurance my whole working life. The first ½ working for one of the largest insurers in Canada and now as a Broker helping people to understand their insurance needs.
My main goal is to bring integrity to our business and to deal with each person with honesty and transparency.
Outside of insurance, I enjoy family time (even though work tends to include that). I love to swim, boat, travel and be on the water.

From Sam, About Sam:
I started working for the family brokerage full time right out of high school in 2011. I received my RIBO license in 2012 and after a few years I left the brokerage to gain valuable commercial underwriting experience in Toronto. I returned to the brokerage in late 2017 and have since been using my commercial insurance expertise to assist our commercial clients with their varying insurance needs.
I spend my spare time travelling (before COVID), riding my motorcycle or anything that has a motor really and I love hanging out with my family and friends—you can ask my girlfriend “I always have to have people around me”.

Back in 2010 I created LetUsQuoteYou.com to help expand our brokerages online and digital presence. We have worked hard to provide online solutions and automation while continuing to keep our family values at the forefront of our business.

I have been with Chambers Insurance from the ‘get go’. I began my insurance carrier at 16 working as a CSR and then began selling insurance shortly after. I have always enjoyed helping each client tailor an insurance policy to their needs.
I have two beautiful kids that some say I spoil far too much. When I am not working I enjoy spending my days travelling and camping with my family.

From Wade, About Wade:
I have been working at Chambers Insurance since the very beginning and in the industry as a broker since 1992.
When I am not working, you will find me spending quality time with my wife of 36 years and my two children (son and daughter) whom I am extremely proud of.
You may recognize me from the local ball hockey rink where I occasionally ref in my spare time. I am a sports enthusiast and have a love for classic cars which I used to race back in the good old days. Go Bengals—Go Leafs!

From Brooke, About Brooke:
I have been working at Chambers Insurance for many years and I strive to help our clients find the best insurance for the best price.
In addition, you will find me singing throughout the Niagara Region at various events, funerals and weddings. I love teaching my voice students, directing children’s choirs and every chance I get I take off to New York City to see some Broadway Shows!
In my ‘limited’ spare time, I enjoy spending time with my husband, friends, family and pets. (Not in that particular order, sorry Ken).

From Dan, About Dan:
When I am not working you will probably find me on the baseball diamond or doing anything outdoors (including opening my pool far too early and closing it far too late). I love the summer, swimming, bike riding and travelling. One of my families favourite destinations is the beaches of New Jersey.
Every summer I travel throughout North America playing competitive Fastpitch Soft Ball, playing the best teams the game has to offer. Throughout the winter months, I spend most of my time by the fire in the backyard wishing it was summer.

From Jake, About Jake:
I started at Chambers Insurance over 6 years ago, leaving behind a career in the retail industry. I was born in Napanee and moved to the Niagara Region in the early 2000’s. I like to go north every chance I get to enjoy the outdoors and family time.
My favorite pass time would have to be camping and all that goes along with it including Fishing, hiking and trying to not get eaten by a bear.
My wife and I enjoy taking our dog Freya on hikes through nature trails while bird watching and taking pictures of all that nature has to offer.

From Karen, About Karen:
I started my insurance career at Mason Insurance in 1988. In December 1999, I went to work at a new brokerage, Kuhn and Associates. After 22 years the owner retired and at that time Kuhn & Associates was acquired by Brokerlink. After a short stint there, I decided to get away from the corporate environment. I wanted a more personal, hometown environment that I had grown accustom to, which led me to Chambers Insurance!
In my spare time, I like to spend time with family and friends, going for long walks at the park or beach with my dog and hanging out with my guy either at home, out for dinner or attending concerts.

 From Lorenzo, About Lorenzo:

As a lifelong resident of the Welland/Pelham area, I am so pleased to be a part of a locally owned and operated business like Chambers Insurance, right here in beautiful Fonthill.

As a former Chef/Restaurateur for over 30 years, I understand the power and satisfaction good customer service holds—which is the main focus of mine when assisting people with their insurance needs.

When I’m not working, I can be found jamming with my band, out on the boat with my beautiful wife, camping with our amazing pups (I am a proud GSD dad) or just hanging around the local block with friends and family.

From Julie, About Julie:

I have been in the industry since 1989. Starting as a receptionist and claims assistant and then an underwriter. Ater many years of company work, I wanted to know who the “people” were behind the policies that I was writing, and I became a Broker in 2005.

In 2021, I reunited with a childhood flame, sold my house in St. Thomas and moved to Midland. I worked for a couple of brokerages since moving north but none of them really made me feel like family until I happened upon Chambers Insurance, right here in downtown Midland and I am loving it!

In my spare time I like to hang at home (around the pool in the summertime) with my husband. We listen to Metallica and watch the Leaf’s games. GO LEAFS GO!  Life is good!
