The president and CEO of Personal Risk Management Solutions, Celia Santana, and her team represent successful individuals and families, working hand in hand with their clients’ wealth advisors and family offices to help them identify, understand and manage the risks they face.
“I love my work and am passionate about my clients and colleagues and the industry,” says Celia. “My approach is to strive for excellence in everything I do. I have been recognized for my mentorship and leadership skills, my authenticity and my willingness to help others. I believe in the importance of sending the elevator back down. My confidence and work ethic are the keys to my success, and I owe that to my parents who emigrated to the US from the Dominican Republic. They taught me how to be an honest, reliable and hardworking person. They were my biggest supporters. My daily mantra is ‘There is no substitute for preparation.’ I have planned, prepared and delivered for 32 years.”
Celia and her team are well known for advocating on behalf of their clients for the best possible outcomes. She began her career in the high-net-worth property and casualty space over 30 years ago at Chubb Insurance, where she discovered her passion for the business. In her last job at Chubb Insurance, she was a senior executive with a significant P&L responsibility. Her unique expertise provides her clients with tailored personal risk management recommendations that lead to personalized solutions.
Passionate about recruiting and developing talent into the insurance industry, she has mentored many young people, among them women and people of color. She is on the Board of the Private Risk Management Association. Celia has been a featured speaker at Working Mother Media’s Annual Conference, the Private Risk Management Association, and the National Association of Insurance Women. She has also been featured in the Wall Street Journal, Rough Notes, AOL’s Daily Finance column, Investment News, Independent Agent Magazine, American Agent & Broker Magazine, Careerbuilder.com and various other media outlets.
She is a graduate of Wesleyan University and attended the Smith College Women’s Management Program. She volunteers with A Better Chance and the National Hispanic Scholarship Fund.
“My goals are to continue to make a true difference in the lives of others as a broker, trailblazer, leader, role model and/or mentor, mother and friend,” she says.
