Doug graduated from Manchester College in 1980 with a double major in Business Administration and Computer Programming. After graduation, Doug started his insurance career as a personal lines producer of Life and Health products in the family agency, which began in 1962. Doug’s education has extended today to include the designations, Certified Financial Planner, and Chartered Life Underwriter.

Doug founded BeniComp in the late 1980’s as a vehicle to administer group medical products. Today, BeniComp administers benefit plans for over 600 employers nationally and is currently contracted as the national administrator for Government Personnel Mutual Life Insurance Co., Inc., Assurity Life Insurance Co., Inc. (not available to Florida residents) and most recently, as an approved administrator for The New York Life Insurance Co., Inc. BeniComp is a licensed administrator in 48 states.

Doug holds 9 current U.S. patents with BeniComp Advantage being the most recent addition. BeniComp Advantage is the first health insurance policy in the nation that provides financial incentives to employees who maintain healthy lifestyles. This compliments the employers desire to provide coverage and is far more cost efficient than conventional health insurance. Doug’s innovative product has lead to interviews and articles in several local publications as well as HRMagazine, Employee Benefit News Weekly, The WallStreet Journal, and CBS News.

Doug resides in Ft Wayne with his wife and 3 children.
