STAFF PROFILE
Get to Know … Tim Wonder
Years with IA&B:
Vice President Membership
Role at IA&B:
Started in 1993, so 29 years.
As Vice President – Membership, I’m responsible for all facets of association membership from recruitment, onboarding, and retention for both independent agencies and our carrier partners. I also oversee our market access program, Independent Market Solutions, and facilitate all of the association’s corporate governance activities.
Best part of your job: I love working with and for independent agents. They are the backbone of their communities, sometimes three or four generations’ worth. They are involved in their houses of worship, leading scout troops, and coaching kids’ sports teams. But most important they are present during a customer’s time of need and to help them recover from a loss. Many of our members I consider friends, and I take pleasure in helping them find resources to help maintain their operations.
Favorite sports team: Anything Pittsburgh, but if you nail me down to just one, the Steelers.
Best “dad joke”: Really? They’re just called jokes. Sure, I enjoy getting laughs by telling a joke or three, but ever since we started quarantining, I’ve only been telling inside jokes. But if you really want a dad joke, what did Yoda say when he saw himself in 4K? HDMI.
