Insurance as Partnership
Doug Esposito has spent over 25 years in the insurance industry with a simple philosophy: treat every client's business as if it were his own.
His career began after leadership roles with a San Francisco general contractor—giving him firsthand understanding of the industries he now serves. He joined Owen-Dunn Insurance Services in 2002, building their energy, construction, and cannabis practices from the ground up. When Owen-Dunn joined AssuredPartners in 2017 (now part of Gallagher), Doug continued leading these specialized divisions with the resources of one of the nation's largest brokerages.
Before insurance, Doug worked as a "Bookman" for the Southwestern Company, selling educational books door-to-door across Arkansas, Southern Illinois, and Missouri—an experience that instilled the work ethic and people skills that define his approach today.
"I treat every client's business as if it were my own."
