With more than 22 years in the insurance industry, Danette has built her career around something that comes naturally to her — caring about people. She has a gift for making clients feel heard, understood, and cared for while helping them navigate what can often feel like a complicated world of insurance and healthcare. As the leader of Evergreen’s Medicare division, Danette especially enjoys bringing clarity and confidence to an area that can feel overwhelming, helping people make informed decisions that fit into their bigger financial and life plans.
But the most important part of Danette’s life has never been her career — it’s her family. She and her husband have been married for over 50 years, and together they have built a life filled with love, tradition, faith, and 11 grandchildren who keep their calendars full. If there’s a football game, baseball game, dance performance, school event, or anything else one of her grandchildren is involved in, chances are Danette will be there cheering them on.
Danette and her husband take great pride in their home and yard and in making their home a place where family can gather, traditions can continue, and everyone feels welcome. She loves the magic of the holidays, the traditions that come with each season, and the simple joy of creating a home that feels like a place to rest and reconnect.
When Danette thinks about her dream retirement, she doesn't picture slowing down as much as having the freedom to spend her time exactly where she wants it — loving her family well, making memories with her grandchildren, camping, boating, and enjoying the people and traditions that have meant so much throughout her life.
