Licensed Insurance Agent
I’m a licensed insurance agent with The Modern Insurance Store, with 4 years of licensed experience helping clients navigate Medicare, health, and life insurance decisions.
Background
I spent 40 years in manufacturing before retiring and starting a second career, earning my insurance license in 2022. I now work alongside my son, Anthony Selm, co-owner of The Modern Insurance Store — bringing four decades of hands-on, no-nonsense experience to how I help clients sort through their options.
After four decades in manufacturing, I didn’t really retire so much as redirect — trading one kind of hands-on problem-solving for another. Working alongside my son has given me a front-row seat to how much Medicare rules and plan options shift year to year, and I bring the same no-nonsense, get-it-right-the-first-time mindset from my manufacturing career to making sure your plan actually fits your specific doctors and budget, not just whatever’s easiest to explain.
What I Can Help You With
- Comparing Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement (Medigap) plans side by side, using your actual doctors and budget
- Reviewing Part D prescription drug coverage against your current medications
- Walking through your options if you’re turning 65, retiring, or losing employer coverage
- Life insurance and long-term care planning discussed alongside your Medicare coverage
- A free, no-obligation second opinion on a plan you already have
What a Call With Me Actually Looks Like
I like to start with your actual doctors, your current prescriptions with dosages, and your budget — not a plan pitch. From there, I compare the specific Medicare Advantage and Medicare Supplement options actually available at your address, checking your doctors against each plan’s real network rather than assuming a popular plan automatically includes them. There’s no pressure to decide on the spot, and no cost at any stage — I’m compensated by the carrier you eventually choose, not by you.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is there a cost to talk with me?
No. I’m compensated by the insurance carrier you eventually enroll with, not by you, and there’s no obligation to enroll in anything after we talk.
Do I have to already know what plan I want?
Not at all — most clients start with general questions or a plan they’re unsure about, and I work from there rather than expecting you to already know the terminology.
What if I’d rather work with a different agent on the team?
That’s completely fine — see our full About Us page for the rest of the team, or reach out through our general Contact page and we’ll match you with whoever fits best.
