Meet the team
Paul began working with Shannon Insurance in September 2002 although, interestingly, he never intended on being an agent because he thought they were pushy and aggressive. However, he believes the approach at Shannon is more educational and consultive. Before joining the team, Paul was trained to be an underwriter in 1985 and continued for three years. Afterwards he worked with independent agents in sales for another three years and direct/captive agents for fifteen years. He has managed agents in both Tennessee and Kentucky for five years.
