Details, details, details…. Some like to give details a bad rap but they are my favorite part! Be assured I’m double-checking every detail… for fun! I work to make clients’ lives easier and maybe every now and then make people smile with my tasteful yet edgy wit. As a lifelong athlete, I enjoy watching sports, spending time with my husband and kids, competing in Crossfit, and continuing my search for the world best Americano.

Ryan Rourke
My “It’s Always Sunny” and “30 Rock” quote game is absolute madness. I am an Account Executive here at OCI and I love what I do. My day consists of collaborating with our brokers to ensure we provide them a product that will blow their clients away. If I’m not working I’m listening to music and throwing down in the kitchen.

 Reliability, resilience, innovation, and honesty are at my core. When I’m not helping agents or taking care of my (soon to be) husband, step-son, and dogs, I’m off riding a horse! As an ex-cheerleader, competitive horseback rider, pianist, and University of Minnesota – Twin Cities alumni, staying active physically and mentally is in my blood. No challenge is too great as my competitive spirit keeps me afloat.

Before I started at OCI, I was a producer out in the field. This experience gives me unique insight as to what an agent needs to help their presentations go as smoothly as possible. When I’m not helping brokers, you can find me at a concert or just about every home Husker football game with a frosty beverage in hand.

Jenna Russo
 I have never met anyone who knew they would work in insurance as a little kid. I sure didn’t, especially when I studied musical theatre in college, but I am so glad I do! I am an Oklahoma City girl at heart and when I am not on a hike with my husband and my dog, you can find me helping our clients find the right health insurance solutions for their family. Individual health insurance can be confusing and a headache, but my goal is to educate our clients and give them the best possible experience. After relocating to Omaha from OKC in July of 2019, OCI has given me the opportunity to assist our clients and grow in the individual health insurance industry. I love to binge watch YouTube vloggers, play piano and am a sucker for a good movie. I love music and you can always find me listening to Lana Del Rey, City and Colour or The 1975.

Teresa Swoopes
They say “if you love what you do, you never work a day in your life”. Although OCI pays me to help brokers implement worksite benefits for their clients, to me, I am privileged to be making new friends and helping them protect their lifestyle for the unexpected. When I’m not dreaming of my happy place in Jamaica, I am probably planning my next play day with one of my grandkids. Life is good and I wake with a grateful heart every day!

I am constantly planning my next adventure whether it be for work or for fun. Working in the “Worksite Department” I get the opportunity to meet so many diverse groups of people and see so many wonderful new places I wouldn’t normally get to see. When I’m not busy on the road I spend most of my free time with my family or working on some sort of project. Rarely will you find me sitting still, but when I am I’m usually working my way through a good book.

When I started at OCI in 2012, I was quiet, assisted with group sales, and kept as far away from management as possible. Now, I am quiet and landed a management position overseeing the Group Sales Department. When I’m not in the office, I like to watch baseball and football…quietly.

I am an In-Force Specialist and the go-to for in-force issues pertaining to the group side of our business. Attention to detail is my bailiwick and very key in this ever-changing insurance industry and that’s why I love my job! When our brokers and groups need assistance with their everyday needs, I’m your person and no worries, if I don’t know the answer to your question, you can be sure that I’ll do the leg work, research, or reach out to someone in our professional staff to find it. My home is my happy place and I love decorating, gardening, and making people feel cozy in my home.

It’s 3:00 AM and you are in the Emergency Room and you are advised that you are not eligible for benefits. Take an aspirin and call me in the morning and I guarantee I will get your issue resolved.
Your dog has eaten your ID card and you need to see your primary physician. Call me and I will get you an alternate ID number and advise you on getting a temporary ID card.
While on vacation in France, you get very ill and you have to pay the hospital expenses. Upon returning to the U.S., contact me and I will help you get reimbursed so that you can replace your i-Phone that you lost at the hospital.

I consider myself decent at everything but not great at anything. At OCI, I help Tony out at the front desk and I also help in any area of the company in which a decent job is needed.
Adventure enthusiast, lover of the outdoors, proud mama and wife. I have a numbers brain but love helping people. At OCI, that allows me to translate the DRs and CRs into meaningful information everyone can understand!
I enjoy challenging myself in all kinds of ways. My wonderful wife and amazing children provide me with two of my most important challenges: being a good husband and father. They provide me with a lot of motivation to be the best I can be. One of my newest challenges: mastering my current role as the commissions’ administrator here at OCI. The work is rewarding, the people here are great, and I feel blessed to be here. Beyond that, you might find me trying to get my 5K run time back down to what it was when I was 18 (I’ve been trying for a long, long time) or putting together a scale model (yes, there are people who still do that).
Nick came to OCI in 2018 with a lot of different talents: placing difficult life cases, business continuation planning, overcommunication, and coaching youth soccer. Only a couple of those come in handy at the office day to day. When he isn’t working, he and his wife, Malinda, are busy chasing their 6 kids around Kansas City from 1 activity to the next.
