With over two decades of experience in the health insurance industry, Nicole is a passionate leader, co-founder, and CEO of The ICHRA Shop, the first marketplace dedicated to Individual Coverage Health Reimbursement Arrangements (ICHRA). She is driven by her commitment to revolutionizing how businesses offer employees health insurance. Under Nicole's leadership, The ICHRA Shop has become a trusted resource for employers seeking a more flexible, cost-effective, and personalized approach to employee health benefits.
Nicole's deep understanding of ICHRA and other innovative benefit structures stems from her previous role as CEO of Golden Bee Advisors, where she led the firm in deploying resources to large employers and brokers nationwide. Her strategic vision and insights helped organizations transition away from traditional group health insurance models and embrace more tailored solutions, like ICHRA, which offers tax-free funding for employees to purchase the health insurance that best fits their needs.
In her early career, Nicole gained extensive experience in sales and account management with top industry names like Guardian Life and Assurant Employee Benefits (now Sun Life Financial), where she developed a comprehensive understanding of group insurance products and enrollment processes. Her ability to build relationships with brokers and policyholders, identify client needs, and manage complex accounts has been foundational to her success in launching and growing The ICHRA Shop.
Her expertise spans medical, dental, life, disability, and vision insurance, and she is known for her ability to simplify complex health benefit options for businesses of all sizes.More...
