Joel Brand: With over 25 years in the insurance brokerage business, and a Degree of Insurance and Risk Management from the College of Insurance (Now St. John’s University), Joel applies his high touch approach within his main focus areas of Hospitality, Technology, Golf Related Entities, Non-Profits and other Commercial Insurance Sectors. This high touch philosophy, along with his partnership approach (Client, Broker, Insurance Carrier), allows his clients to feel part of the solution process, rather than an institutionalized philosophy. As client has specific needs, this allows for an Insurance Solution that is customized to their needs, not the needs of the broker or Insurance Carrier.

His responsibilities include information security programs and operations, infrastructure protection, data privacy, cyber investigations, incident response and technology risk management and compliance.
