Sherman Chow

Sherman Chow

Risk Management Specialist

経歴を見る

My name is Sherman Chow and I have been in the insurance industry for 38 years. Thirty of those years were with an insurance reciprocal that is owned by local governments but operated by insurance and legal professionals. The organization has over 170 municipalities and regional districts as members, and it manages a wide range of liability, property, and ancillary insurance claims for its members. During my time at the organization, I was the Director of Claims and Director of Insurance.

I was born and raised in Vancouver and attended the University of British Columbia where I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in political science. My area of expertise was in claims management and risk management. However, I stepped away from the claims field for several years to create and launch a property insurance program for local governments.

I have extensive liability and property claims management experience, having managed hundreds of complex catastrophic losses. I am well versed in risk management and very knowledgeable about local government pooling. I also maintained my insurance brokerage license for many years to run the property insurance program.

I am passionate about sharing knowledge and mentoring the next generation of insurance and pooling professionals. My experience would be an asset to any organization seeking claims consulting or claims auditing services, as well as pooling expertise.

Juanito Gallon

Juanito Gallon

Website Management Specialist

経歴を見る
I love making websites that are simple, clean, aesthetically pleasing, functional, user friendly, and above all client’s personal message to be instructed precisely and accurately. I worked at a innovative web design company more than 10 years and gained my slills of HTML, CSS, as well as JavaScript. I think a good website should talk to people, giving information in a very short time, that works on multiple devices and reflects their personality. I believe that information communicated should be quality and graphic. We now live in an immensely visual world and it’s important to tell our stories in the most effective way, where users are immersed, wanting to return for more information and indulgence.
