Pinnacle Holding Company LLC has announced the appointment of Adam Brown as president of Pinnacle Insurance Associates, the firm’s newly established insurance division. Brown brings over 25 years of experience in commercial insurance and risk management to his new role.
Brown’s insurance career began while he was still in college, interning in the risk management department of a prominent Northeast regional independent insurance broker. He rapidly advanced through the ranks, becoming a commercial lines account executive and later assistant vice president after the firm was acquired by a national broker in 2001.
In 2007, Brown joined a large regional agency, where he progressed to senior commercial lines account executive, then commercial lines sales manager. By 2015, he had been promoted to vice president, and in 2017, he became senior vice president, specializing in manufacturing and distribution risk.
Throughout his career, Brown has been recognized for creating tailored commercial insurance and risk management programs across various industries. His expertise will be invaluable in his new position at Pinnacle Insurance Associates.
