Each year, organizations like yours face the daunting task of maintaining their current level of benefits while staying within budget.
Most broker/consultants will go to market on behalf of their clients and present solutions that simply increase out of pocket costs for employees. But these "solutions" never really solve the underlying reasons their carrier is increasing costs.
Our strategy is different. It's measured. It's clear. And it bends the cost curve so our clients can recruit top talent and retain their current employees.

The world of employee benefits can be a treacherous path to navigate without the right partner. Recent regulation has made it even more difficult for businesses to remain in compliance.
Don't be left in the dark when it comes to understanding your employer responsibilities. With the increased scope of regulation, we feel auditing performed by the Department of Labor will cover all group sizes with greater intensity.

Early Years: A natural sports fan.
Carly was born and raised in Maryland with her younger sister Allie. Though Carly considers herself a NARP (non-athletic regular person), she's dabbled in most sports at one time or another. Luckily, Carly's minimal athleticism hasn't stopped her from enjoying sports. Growing up she went to Baltimore Ravens and Orioles games with her dad and grandfather. She even has an autograph from the Ravens' mascot, Poe!
What we know about Carly: Eat, drink and be rosemary.
After graduating from Towson University with a double major in health care management and business administration, Carly moved to Federal Hill in Baltimore. She spends her time walking around the city trying new restaurants, exploring local bars and shopping with friends. But if she's not out and about, she'll be home watering her many, many houseplants or snuggling her cock-a-tzu dog, Buster.
Fun Facts
Really relishes hotdogs: "When I visited Nashville, I ate a 12-inch-long hotdog served in a chipotle-sized bowl. Hotdogs are my favorite food, and if I could eat one every day, I would."
Happiness in a cup: "I need my caffeine fix every single day. I would even drink an iced coffee in a blizzard - nothing can hold me back from my coffee."
Stilettos anyone? "My first word was "shoe." When I was younger, I was obsessed with shoes - I would always put on everyone's shoes and strut around the house, even when the shoes were five times too big."

Talk techy to me.

Though she has no formal technical education, she carries the same enthusiasm for technology to her role at EBS.
I taught myself English by listening to books on tape. I may not speak Tagalog anymore but I understand my parents when they talk about me to relatives.
Unique, just like 70 million other people. A Myers-Briggs certified INFJ, I am among only 1% of the world's population.
I have three dogs. Wicket the shih-poo, Puddles the cavapoo, and a golden doodle Sperry.
I met my husband in a bar while dressed as Lara Croft. His female friend agreed to pose as his sister. The truth was revealed on our first date
