Amundsen Maritime Agency
"As a young independent agency - we are now in our 11th year but joined AYSS in our 3rd year of business - being a member gave me a trusted group of colleagues to ask questions of and bounce ideas off. It also provided a network of agents to pass clients off to, and receive referrals from. We have grown tremendously in those 11 years, and I credit that to the network of professionals we work with. We make lifelong friends in this unique industry, and I am happy to include my fellow AYSS agents in that circle."
