I very much enjoy working with Kim on accounts.
Thanks Kim for being awesome at your job!!!

Vince Rolstad
With our movement into the Wisconsin market, Vince has been a great help in getting some "new to CG" clients onboard, marketed, renewed and implemented well ahead of schedule and very successfully. Many of these relationships have known me for a long time, and we have exceeded their expectations and they now know why CG is a special place. This is all thanks to Vince running quarterback on these clients.
Brandon Boelter
Brandon has stepped up to lead the Charity Bags Tournament and has done a fantastic job communicating and keeping it going during a very busy month. I am extremely impressed with his enthusiasm and passion for giving back. He's also led many other charity initiatives throughout his time serving on the committee, and we couldn’t do it without him. He’s a true team player, and we are so fortunate to have him on the Charity Committee and at CG!
Cam Traetow
Cam has been an extremely valuable mentor and teammate as I moved into a complex book of micromobility. He is always willing to stop what he's doing to help me out, no matter how big the task at hand is. I’ve learned so much from him as he’s extremely efficient, intelligent, professional, and kind. Recently I had to step away from work for an unexpected extended time, and on top of his very busy work load he managed to keep things moving. I’m so grateful to have a team member as talented as him!
Brittany Ratke
Brittany has taught me so much within the last year since I joined our complex micromobility book. My questions are endless and from day one she has always taken the time to explain my questions in detail. Not only have I been able to understand the task at hand, but she explains how the coverage applies behind the scenes. She's so intelligent and has a wealth of knowledge including unique agency bill scenarios, and I’m so lucky to be working with her directly and learning so much along the way. Working in the non-admitted market, nothing is straightforward/ A-B, and she has shown so much resilience. Brittany is an amazing coworker and friend to have and I'm so grateful!
Irene Koelewijn
In the short time Irene has been at CG, she has made a huge impact!

Gail Oldakowski
New business submissions have been flowing in at a steady pace and Gail has does an amazing job keeping up with the volume and works hard to meet the need by dates so that I can get them out to the markets. Gail is a huge asset to the marketing team and I know, I for one, could not do my job if it weren't for her help on the onset of setting up the applications and then again on the backside updating applications with all the necessary changes that took place during the marketing process so that they are ready for the team to work with. Thanks Gail for being so good at your job and helping me daily!!!! I appreciate you.
Kyle Simmons
Kyle has spent months working with his team to build an airtable that will streamline the data collection of our CG Group Home program. He and his team( Becca Rockwell & Tom Broback) have converted my "beast"of an excel spreadsheet which included12 yrs of data into a much easier format. The new format gives me the ability to pull different types of reports, allow clients to submit their estimated annual payrolls directly into the system and eventually producers will have access that they can review data for discussions with their clients during the course of the year. This was not small feat and will save me HOURS of time as I work on the renewal. THANK YOU!!!

Barbie came into CG ready to rock and roll! I appreciate how willing she has been to jump into things, info share, do research, tag team on clients, accounts and all the things that make work fun. She is energetic, passionate and clearly wants to deliver an excellent product to our producers, service with hospitality and proud of her work product at the end of the day. Barbie is an excellent addition to our CG team as we all continue to level up in this marketplace. I appreciate her!
Ashton Sabatino
We received notice from a new client that they were hiring me as their agent and wanted to bind coverage with us on a Friday morning. They were set to renew the coming Tuesday, so we had a lot of work to do to get everything issued. They had over 300 certificates and 80 auto ID cards that Ashton spent all day Friday, worked into the weekend, and finished everything by Monday at noon. She never complained and made sure the client had everything they needed to make the transition as smooth as possible. Thank you Ashton for your hard work!

Nancy Matykiewicz
Nancy has a full plate often as she is so incredibly knowledgeable on markets, industries and relationships. When I asked for assistance on a few accounts while I was out of the office, Nancy was quick to jump up and offer assistance without hesitation. She is the true description of a team mate. Not only during this time, but she has always been willing to offer insight to me, drop knowledge on me and share ideas on accounts.

Moriah Trebelhorn
Moriah took time out of her day to sit down and show me the ins and outs of a workbook in indio. When I reached out to Moriah asking if I could shadow her next renewal she was more than willing to let me sit down with her. She went out of her way to let me know when she would be in Eden Prairie next so that we could chat about it in person. People like Moriah (always willing to help) make it easier to learn. Thanks, Moriah!
Greta Pelzer
Greta and I collaborated on a challenging renewal which the agency has controlled for a long time. She was incredibly patient in getting what was needed from the client, gracious in her appreciation of my assistance and very detail oriented. Working with Greta on this particular account showed me where I can grow professionally and do better. Anytime we can walk away from experiences with our teammates and learn from them, as well as see their incredible strengths, it is worthy of a highlight! Greta, thank you for your patience and pushing me to continue to be better! Your organization and attention to detail is an inspiration. I appreciate you!
Stephanie Kilmer
Stephanie is ON-IT! She is prompt, on top of things, and not to mention - just an absolute pleasure to work with. Great communicator. Great collaborator. When a recent challenge arose surrounding ambiguity about future drug coverage creditability for our groups, Stephanie was a wonderful partner in dividing and conquering between Group Reps and Medicare Reps to help get the answers we needed so we could provide direction moving forward. Thank you, Stephanie.
Laura Wilde
We had a Carrier Appreciation Event for Employee Benefits and Laura helped out tremendously!

Your outstanding work and cheerful spirit are truly appreciated by everyone. We are so lucky to have you on our team!
Derek Heaton
I was working from the Monticello office one afternoon when a client came in to meet with Derek. This client was clearly unhappy with the service that they have received from another broker, and that carried into their meeting with Derek. Derek was able to confidently, kindly, and professionally put the client's mind at ease with our offerings and his calm demeanor. He let the client know that they were of utmost importance and that he would take care of them like he would his own family. I was incredibly impressed with his patience and willingness to work through all of the questions and concerns that the client had.

The event went off without a hitch, due in large part to Amanda's hard work and dedication. Thank you!

Chris is just wonderful to work with! I was out of the office a few weeks ago with sick kiddos and had an emergency risk that needed resolution same day.

Cannot do this without you, Chris!
Jocelyn Liska
Jocelyn was a HUGE help to me today! She offered to split the workload of a large, complicated project. Without her, I wouldn't have been able to complete this by the deadline. I am beyond grateful for the fact that despite her busy workload she is always willing to help me out. She truly puts the T in teamwork and makes my day-to-day job go so much smoother!
Sean Kurtenbach

It was an extremely tall task to move a risky class of business out of their current Work Comp program to a new carrier in such a short amount of time. Julie knocked it out of the park in every aspect! All her knowledge and relationships built with carriers was invaluable in the process. Thank you for your help!!!

Abbey does so much for the entire agency and we appreciate her! Thanks Abbey!!
Kristina Schmitz
Kristina is my backup when I am out of the office. I was recently on vacation and to say that Kristina was bombarded while I was out is an understatement. We recently wrote a new account and while I was out I think there were at least 50 emails from the client on various COI requests/issues. And this was just for one account - there were many other requests that came her way from other accounts. How she kept up with the numerous requests that came her way from my desk and working on her own desk is beyond me. She must have super powers! "Thank you" does not seem to be enough, but THANK YOU Kristina!
Heather Joerg
Heather was a huge help while I was recently on vacation. Heather helped my primary backup with some items as well as being the primary backup for the accounts I have with a specific producer. She stepped in and helped out on many items and even offered to continue to help on these items even though I have returned from vacation. We are very fortunate to have colleagues like Heather on our team. Thank you Heather!
Hanna Barr
A note from one of our clients:
"I needed to begin the process of applying for Medicare, along with choosing a supplemental medical and drug plan. Hanna was so patient as she explained the process, and followed up once I was approved for Medicare and helped me complete the enrollment. She also added Megan to help with my current coverage! Megan helped me with submitting all of my paperwork. We have had the Christensen Group help us with insurance coverage for many years....and have had wonderful service from all of the staff.

Laura Wilde
I want to acknowledge the unsung hero of the office, Laura Wilde! Managing the front desk (and a lot more) with a smile and great attitude, she also stepped up to help Kyle and me with a project that needed to be turned around very quickly. She did it fast and accurately and I really appreciate it. Stepping up to help in ways that are outside her normal scope of work, and doing it all with a great attitude - thank you Laura!
Meghan Kimmerle
Meghan has been so helpful in helping our team stay caught up during this transitionary period for our team and it has not gone unnoticed.

Sarina Khariwala
Thank you Sarina for working so hard to create the CG Reporting portal within CG Connect! I love this tool so much! Now that we don't need to sign into VPN and then RDS to run documents from AMS Control, we have saved a lot of time and are able to be more efficient.

Linda Jackson
We had an insured that was added to client connect to issue certificates themselves. Linda jumped on our teams call and gave the insured a step by step tutorial on how to work the portal. I really appreciated it and I am sure the insured did as well!
Ashley Kellerman
Since day one, I have only received patience and kindness from Ashley. She is very knowledgeable in what she does. At the same time very humble. I appreciate all the help you have given me thus far, Ashley. Thank you!
Matt Razidlo
Matt has been absolutely incredible and a huge help to the team - especially in these last 2 weeks! He is very quick to respond, works through things in a timely manner, and is thorough in what he does. He also takes major issues seriously, and works to get resolved same day. All of this has been done without a single complaint. Keep up the great work, Matt! Thanks for all you do!
Kyle Simmons
Kyle does so much to not only help support the entire organization, but also makes everything fun. There have been several occasions over the past two years where finding Easter Eggs on the website, handling the Christenmas Trivia, or even a fun gif after submitting an expense report has brightened my day. It is a reminder not to take myself too seriously and enjoy those little moments. Thanks for everything you do, Kyle!
Becca Rockwell
One of my challenging tasks on my way to success here at CG has been building out Salesforce into WIsconsin. I have a large import for a vertical that we are focusing on, and I was looking to get it loaded and save a TON of manual entry. Becca got it done quickly and efficiently saving me a ton of time and effort! THANK YOU!

Angelia Roe
Our client was thrilled to finally receive a claims settlement check from a third party after 6 weeks of back and forth. Angelia was instrumental in communicating not only with the client but the person who was at fault in the accident's insurance company to get this resolved. Thank you Angelia for all of your help and professionalism. It's situations like these that secure relationships for years. Thank you!

Lillian Rivera
I was a part of the Worksmart Online training yesterday, and Lillian was training everyone. She has quite the talent when it comes to being PATIENT, keeping everyone on task and demonstrating the program extremely well. I wanted to give her KUDOS. Lillian does such a great job at her normal Sr. CA position, but on top of ALL of that work, she helps the trainees progress, and she trains like a complete professional. Great job to Lillian.
