How I work

I start with your situation rather than a product: your doctors, your prescriptions, your household, your dates — or for a business, what you do, who works for you and what would hurt most if it went wrong.

Then I compare what the carriers I'm appointed with will actually offer you, and I tell you plainly when the coverage you already have looks like the right fit.

Insurance help and the Social Security analysis are both free to you; for insurance the carrier pays a commission, and what it costs spells it out.

Who I help

  • People turning 65, and people who were auto-enrolled into a Medicare plan they don't understand.
  • Couples deciding when each of them should claim Social Security.
  • Owner-operators (restaurants, contractors, shops) who want one person to call about their business insurance.

What I don't do

  • I don't work for Medicare, the Social Security Administration or any government agency.
  • I don't sell every plan in the market — only the ones I'm appointed to offer, which I'll always tell you.
  • I don't give investment or securities advice.
  • I don't cold-call. If you hear from me, it's because you asked.

Background

I studied economics at the University at Albany and am licensed in New York as a life, accident and health insurance agent, and as a property and casualty agent and broker. I hold the RSSA® credential from the National Association of Registered Social Security Analysts and complete AHIP's Medicare certification every year.

I grew up speaking Turkish and work with the Turkish-speaking community across the Capital Region — see how that works or go straight to the Türkçe pages.
