Director of private client services
J.T. INSURANCE SERVICES
Prior to getting her start in insurance, Sheri Clay worked in the cruise industry, “which is a fun, sexy business,” she says. “I did not feel insurance would be remotely similar.” After she had her first child, Clay wanted to go back to work but was looking for a better work-life balance. Her husband owns J.T. Insurance Services, and together they decided she should give working at the office a shot.
“It took some adjustments, but I found my niche and have never looked back,” Clay says. “I love working with my clients and take pride in knowing they will be protected if and when the time arises.”
Now an integral part of the team at J.T. Insurance, which celebrates its 50th anniversary this year, Clay uses her knowledge and communication skills to tackle issues head on and find a creative way to make things work for her clients. Her achievements have been recognized on an international scale; she was one of only two Canadians selected for the CAPI designation at Wharton.
