Christie Stang has renewed her membership with BNI. We are so lucky to have her experience in Commercial Insurance. No matter if it is the confusing 1099 rule changes, Property & Casualty coverage extras (wrapped vehicle, tool boxes, special wheels) or a cottage kitchen she can help you out!
Next time she is speaking at BNI, you should come and hear her!
