Our Story

Why make the move to insurance?

Vinnie, being Latino, has always been a family man. It was always his dream to have a loving family of his own. He was blessed with his first son, Dawson, in 2022. In 2024 he found the love of his life, Emilee, and they had their son Benício (Beni) in 2025.

Bringing Beni into the world was scary. Believe it or not, Vinnie was very skeptical of the medical system and insurance prior to this. On Emilee's birthday (and Mother's Day) her placenta detached and ruptured, causing an emergency c-section where she and Beni nearly didn't make it. Luckily, the wonderful team of doctors and medical professionals at Advent Health Winter Park saved them both.

Through this experience, Vinnie understood not only the importance of quality medical care, but the power of Emilee's good health insurance that saved him thousands of dollars. This also forever changed his perspective on the fragility of life.

How being an Insurance Broker helps us (and you!)

Vinnie decided being close to his family was top priority. The insurance industry allows him the comfort of working from home so he can continue to provide for his family while being there for his wife and children.

Vinnie believes honesty, integrity, and transparency are of utmost importance when building relationships and trust with his clients.

As an independent insurance broker, he is typically compensated by the insurance companies he works with when a policy is purchased. In most cases, this does not increase the premium you pay, the cost is generally the same whether you buy directly from the carrier or through a broker.

The compensation from the carriers allows Vinnie to provide personalized guidance, compare options from multiple carriers, and offer ongoing support throughout the life of your policy. As an added benefit of choosing Insurance Guy Vinnie, he can assist with booking appointments, follow ups, and negotiating insurance claims.
