He also served as the Legal Counsel to Assembly Speaker Curt Pringle and as counsel to the Senate Minority Leader from 2001-03. Conlin additionally served as assistant state treasurer from 1998-1999. He has worked as an attorney, representing insurance agents, brokers and the American Insurance Association. Conlin has a bachelor of arts degree in economics from the University of Pennsylvania; a master of arts degree in history from Northwestern University and a juris doctorate degree from UC Davis.
Conlin “brings a wealth of knowledge from his experience in state service and the insurance industry,” said Commissioner Poizner.
