Higginbotham & Associates announced it has added commercial property and casualty broker J. Ryan Perry to its Dallas branch office. At 29 years old, Perry was most recently a top-two producer and vice president at Sleeper Sewell Insurance Services Inc.
According to the announcement, Perry had success early in his career, breaking three production records during his four years at Sleeper Sewell. He was the first broker under the age of 30 to write one, then two accounts in excess of $1 million in premium each and was the fastest growing producer in the firm’s history. Perry potentially brings to Higginbotham a book of business valued at more than $600,000.
Perry has concentrated experience managing the liability programs for contractors and manufacturers. He is a member of the Plumbing-Heating-Cooling Contractors Association (PHCC) and the Texas Contractors Association.
Before joining Sleeper Sewell in 2003, Perry worked in the entertainment industry, appearing in GQ, Cosmopolitan and Men’s Health, and on television for “One Life to Live” and “The Today Show,” among other entertainment vehicles. Perry is a 2000 graduate of Ouachita Baptist University in Arkadelphia, Ark., and he earned a Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) designation in 2003.
