California-based independent insurance broker Woodruff Sawyer announced it is expanding its East Coast footprint with the addition of six executives formerly with insurer Acrisure.
According to the announcement, Matthew Kelly, Robert Trager, Bob Kempner, Chris Iovino, Eric Wagner, and Michael Rella — who were with Acricure’s Construction and Commercial Risk Practice— will open Woodruff Sawyer’s first office in New York.
The New York team members have backgrounds in construction, bonding, and surety.
Kelly will play a pivotal role as the New York market growth leader. “I’m thrilled to play such a vital part in building our presence in New York, and I look forward to implementing innovative business strategies, forging key partnerships, and collaborating closely with my team,” he said in the announcement.
