Today we’d like to introduce you to Jennifer Pham.
Hi Jennifer, so excited to have you on the platform. So before we get into questions about your work-life, maybe you can bring our readers up to speed on your story and how you got to where you are today?
I had an interest to becoming an insurance agency when I was 21 years old. I had never done insurance in the past. Since high school my career was all medical billing, coding and administration in a physician office. After having children and staying home for a few years. I decided when I entered the work force again I would try to do what I always had the desire to do. If I failed at least I tried. I applied to work with a local insurance agency in Olathe. A female agent took a chance on someone with no official sales experience. I just had a passion for helping others. She shortly became the best mentor I have had and made me realize I could have my own agency one day. My spouse was a big support in helping me choose Shelter Insurance and to pursue my dreams as being a business owner. What began as a simple interest in understanding how coverage worked quickly turned into a lifelong career built on relationships and trust. I worked hard to grow my knowledge and earn my clients confidence. I have built an agency that reflects my values of honest, care and community in the small town of Louisburg.
Would you say it’s been a smooth road, and if not what are some of the biggest challenges you’ve faced along the way?
I have had many challenges. I started my agency at a time when I just finished battling breast cancer and I had to still have a few surgical procedures. I opened my agency in a small town and I didn’t know a single soul.

I love to give back to my insureds as well. If I have someone insured that does window cleaning. I will use their service. I feel like I need to give back to my insureds and my community.
