Introducing: Sharon Kalmes<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Sharon Kalmes is our commercial account manager here at Avalue Insurance. She\u2019s a seasoned insurance pro and our resident expert for commercial and personal lines. With over 40 years in the insurance game, Sharon brings four decades of experience and a prestigious CIC designation to our team.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Originally hailing from California, Sharon lovingly refers to herself as a “semi-native”. She made the move to Colorado in February of 1985 after a job promotion, and she would soon meet her husband (a \u201ctrue\u201d Colorado native) and settle down in the Centennial state.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Being the policy guru that she is, Sharon stayed committed to the insurance industry. It was only a matter of time before she met Sarah Lampard, owner of Avalue Insurance. Sharon had initially interviewed with another agency, and the owner of that agency decided to get in touch with Sarah. Impressed by Sharon’s qualifications and experience, Sarah wasted no time and promptly called her in for an interview. The two instantly connected, and Sharon was hired on the spot. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

As a beloved member of the Avalue family, Sharon is a dependable teammate \u2014 the kind of teammate who can hold down the fort for you while you’re on vacation! “When I first hired her, I left on my first vacation 10 days later,” says Sarah Lampard. “She told me not to bring my laptop with me on vacation, and that she could handle it. I will never forget that. She rocks!”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sharon has been with us for 10 happy years. When asked what she loves most about Avalue Insurance, she happily proclaimed, \u201cthe working environment!\u201d Sharon is a strong team member, and she values comradery above all else. Because of this, she feels right at home at Avalue Insurance \u2014 where teamwork is paramount and success is happily shared.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Outside of Avalue, Sharon is an outdoor enthusiast, an avid golfer, and a pickleball aficionado. And when she\u2019s not enjoying the great outdoors, you can find her cooking up a storm, always ready to master new recipes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In Sharon Kalmes, we have not only found a top-notch commercial account manager, but also an amazing individual with a wealth of experiences and a zest for life. Her commitment to excellence is inspiring, and her adventurous spirit is infectious. Here\u2019s to another 10 lovely years, Sharon!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
