Terry graduated from California State University Northridge with a Business degree in marketing. His friendships developed in college eventually lead him into the insurance industry.

At Hoffman Brown Company, Terry is a commercial lines Account Executive handling accounts of all sizes. Terry is well versed in the insurance business, having both his fire and casualty license and his life/medical license. Even though he has sold life and medical insurance and enjoys talking about these coverages in generalities, he is happy to allow Hoffman Brown’s benefits department handle the actual marketing and servicing. "You cannot be an expert in everything, so I prefer to concentrate on the Fire & Casualty side of the business, there is so much to constantly learn and Life/Medical is changing even faster".

Terry also has earned a special insurance degree/designation, CIC. This stands for Certified Insurance Counselor. In addition to the original series of classes and tests, annual educational updates are required to maintain the designation.
