Chris Christian
Chris Christian, CIC, RPLU began her insurance career in 1985, joining GAF Insurance Services, a retail agency. After six years with GAF, Chris moved to the carrier side, opening the San Diego branch office of RLI Corp, an underwriter of specialty lines of insurance. The San Diego office was dedicated to Directors and Officers Liability coverage, and was the launching pad for Chris’s specialization in professional liability.
By 1997, when Chris departed RLI to join London American General Agency, she had established herself as an underwriter of hard-to-place nonprofit directors and officers liability accounts, healthcare directors and officers liability, and managed care errors and omissions coverages. At London American, Chris launched two underwriting facilities for healthcare-related errors and omissions and directors and officers coverages, as well as brokerage facilities for professional liability and property/casualty lines.
Chris joined US Risk Brokers in November of 2005 as Vice President and Senior Broker, specializing in professional liability. She has earned her Certified Insurance Counselor and Registered Professional Liability Underwriter designations, is a frequent industry speaker and author, teaches continuing education and other courses to agents, and is active in industry associations. Chris currently serves on the Board of Trustees and several sub-committees for the Professional Liability Underwriting Society, on the faculty of the National Alliance for Insurance Education and Research, and on the Education and Legislative Committees of the Tennessee PIA.
