My name is Derek Ford, and I am an insurance broker with Billayrd Insurance Group - Port Perry. I have been in the insurance industry since 2020 and focus primarily on personal lines however, I have recently expanded into commercial insurance, especially craft breweries.
Prior to working in insurance, I was a museum supervisor at the Hockey Hall of Fame combining two of my passions: history and hockey. It was through my work at the Hockey Hall of Fame that I realized I had a knack for engaging with people from all walks of life. The insurance industry is similar; we connect with a wide variety of people daily providing them with a valuable service. It is important to me that insurance is not treated as a transaction, but as an interaction where each client leaves knowing their needs have been met. I have made it my goal to make the insurance purchasing process as seamless as possible while providing top notch service to all my clients.
Feel free to reach out with any insurance questions or concerns you may have, and I would be more than happy to offer my expertise!
