Charlie founded NorthStar Risk Management & Insurance Services with the inspiration and knowledge of insurance programs and risk sharing platforms. His goal has been to separate NorthStar from the regional insurance brokerage firm through risk management tools, enhanced by professional personal services. Northstar opened its doors in 1993 and remains a strong player in commercial income properties, Private Client personal lines and general brokerage areas. Charlie continues with daily management of NorthStar Insurance Services and other interests including; philanthropy, ranching, farming and various “board of directors duties.”
