Leadership is dynamic

Hello, I am your strategic leader

Passionate and driven to serve others.

My name is John Crawmer and here is a little bit about me.

I live in Colorado Springs, Colorado with my beautiful life partner, Prudence.

And we love great coffee!

At the age of 19, I started my career as an electrical journeyman and then had a personal experience in 2007 that launched me into a new career path rooted in the passionate mission to serve humanity more deeply.

“The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.”

— **Lao Tzu**

Today, I contribute with a team of innovative professionals to empower customers to control risks.

And I’m still learning so much more.
