We can't wait to see what the future holds for Zac and his team as we welcome Twardowski Insurance to the Integrity family."

"I'm at the beginning of what I want to accomplish in my career, and I know I can get there so much faster with Integrity propelling me forward," said Zac Twardowski, President of Twardowski Insurance. "This partnership puts my agents in a better position, it helps my employees and it allows me to focus on what I'm good at — teaching agents how to build profitable agencies. I've never been afraid to work hard, and I want to show others where hard work and the right partner can take them. I'm so proud to partner with Integrity — to say I'm thrilled would be an understatement."

Twardowski Insurance will leverage Integrity's insurtech platform of proprietary technology, including CRM, product development, MedicareCENTER, data and analytics, and quoting and enrollment tools.

"In a few short years, Zac has created an immensely successful business. He realizes what Integrity brings to the table for his future growth and sees an incredible opportunity to impact the industry for the better alongside Integrity. We look forward to adding Zac's fresh perspective to our team and I couldn't be happier to welcome him as our newest partner."

Twardowski Insurance Agency is now part of Integrity's network of legendary industry leaders who collaborate on best practices and strategies. These partners include CSG Actuarial, ThomasARTS, Deft Research, Access Capital, Brokers International and Insurance Administrative Solutions' third-party administrator, as well as leading call centers Connexion Point, SeniorCare Benefits and Unified Health.

"I've seen my business grow exponentially since joining Integrity, and I'm excited to see Zac and his team experience that same 'Integrity Effect' right from the start," said Andrew Taylor, President of Taylor Financial and Managing Partner at Integrity.
