As a trusted advisor with more than 30 years of experience in employee benefits and risk management, Cory delivers industry-leading thought leadership and strategic planning, proven cost-containment, and relentless advocacy for our clients and their employees.
Cory specializes in medical, pharmacy, and ancillary benefit programs for medium to large companies, with an emphasis on employee advocacy and advanced self-funding strategies. Additionally, as a true strategic business partner for the employers we represent, Cory works diligently to develop a broader and deeper understanding of clients’ organizations and industries, which allows him – and by extension, our team – to deliver more of a wholistic business impact for our clients.
While working with clients across all industries (manufacturing, life sciences, professional services, etc.), nowhere is his “strategic business partner” mindset more prevalent than in Trucking & Transportation and Motorsports, the industry practice groups Cory has led for various organizations for nearly 20 years.
A father of six adult children, Cory loves spending time with his family. He enjoys playing golf, hunting, fishing, traveling, and pretty much any outdoor activity.
