In 1986, he was one of the founders of the travel insurer Access America and World Access, later acquired by the international travel insurer Mondial Assistance. In 2004 he co-founded and served as the first president of the US Travel Insurance Association, the trade association of American insurers, brokers and administrators specializing in travel insurance.
