Our Story
At Edgewater Insurance Group, we believe in the power of collaboration, experience, and a personal touch when it comes to insurance. Founded by Jake and Andrew, our agency brings together a unique blend of expertise in risk management, customer service, and community-oriented values. While the company itself is a recent venture, the story behind it began years ago in Salem, Massachusetts, where Jake and Andrew first crossed paths.
In 2017, the two worked together as bartenders, serving drinks and building a strong friendship while honing their skills in customer service. Little did they know that these shared experiences would set the foundation for a much larger partnership in the future. Both had a strong interest in business and personal finance, but it wasn’t until 2021 that they reconnected, each having ventured into different sectors of the insurance industry.
Jake was already working in personal lines insurance, specializing in helping families and individuals find the best coverage for their needs, while Andrew had focused on life insurance, advising families and individuals on how to protect their loved ones and secure their financial futures. Recognizing the opportunity to combine their strengths, they decided to join forces and launch Edgewater Insurance Group, a firm dedicated to providing clients with comprehensive life insurance solutions and a personal, consultative experience.
At Edgewater, our approach is simple: we focus on building lasting relationships with our clients, providing them with tailored advice, and helping them navigate the complexities of insurance with confidence. Our goal is to give you peace of mind knowing you’re covered by experts who truly care.
With a shared passion for helping others and a commitment to exceptional service, Jake and Andrew have created an agency that prioritizes integrity, trust, and community. Edgewater Insurance Group isn’t just a business—it’s a reflection of their dedication to serving clients and making a positive impact in the communities they call home.
