Gus Hames

Founder/Agency Principal

My career in insurance and financial services began in 2003, and in 2008, I founded Hames & Co. Over the years, I’ve built my practice on two simple principles: trustworthy advice and a high standard of service. I believe the growth and durability of our business reflect the genuine appreciation we have for our clients and staff. What I find most rewarding is the relational side of this work. This career has led me to a place where I can now spend much of my time working alongside and for people whom I call friends.
