Because EBS has invested in re-directing the employee benefits process and re-educating our clients and staff, other brokers have noticed. As a result, many have asked us to partner with them in managing their own corporate clients.

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: Game Rules
Abigail was raised in Bel Air, Maryland and lived with her mom, dad, and one sister. Growing up, sports were not her favorite. "I faked a lot of injuries to get out of soccer back in the day," she admits. Hanging out with her friends was fun and all, but when it came to playing, she just didn't have much interest in being in the game. On the other hand, she was a real sport when it came to her behavior. "I was quite the rule follower and did everything I could to stay out of trouble!" A good trait to have in the insurance business!
What We Know about Abigail: Work & The City
Abigail graduated from Towson University in 2014 with a dual degree in Early Childhood Education and Special Education. After graduation she was a teacher for four years - two years as a special needs teacher and two years ruling a second-grade classroom. "I lived in the city for a few years after graduation and loved every minute of it," she pines. Still, she moved to the county last summer. "I feel so thankful to work downtown so that I still get a little taste of city living!"
Abigail was married in November 2017. She and her husband are the proud parents of a golden retriever named Frannie - the family favorite!
She Goes the Distance: I ran the Baltimore Marathon in 2015.
She Knows When to Draw the Line: Almost always! 75% of my closet is made up of striped clothing.
Happy Meals: I'm a picky eater! My favorite foods are consistent with the diet of a five-year-old!

Early Years:
Khris was born in sunny Manila, Philippines and moved to Baltimore with her family in the early 90s. She attended The Catholic High School of Baltimore and earned her Business degree from the University of Maryland, College Park.
What we know about Khris:
Talk techy to me.
Growing up as a kid, back when Google wasn't a household name yet and dial-up connections were both deafening and slow, Khris embraced the digital media world and began creating her own personal websites and blogs for fun at age 12. 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

Early years
Candice grew up near Solomons Island in Southern MD -- which makes her "crabby" in a good way. "Not much to do but go to the beach or take boat rides," she reports. She thought it was totally boring growing up. "Now I have a whole new appreciation for my hometown. It's beautiful and I would love to have access to a beach 24/7 again!" She attended Patuxent High School and Towson University, where she majored in Business and Corporate Communication Studies and Creative Writing.
What we know about Candice
Three cheers!
As a former cheerleader, Candice remains an enthusiastic team member. She broke into the industry as an intern at Armada Consulting, then joined Sun Life Financial right out of college. Before joining EBS, Candice worked for Silberstein Insurance Group as their Marketing Manager. Candice has two sisters and a brother (two in the industry!) -- just don't mention that her little sister graduated a few seconds before she did or you might ruffle her pom poms.
She's a DARE Bear. I was in an anti-drug commercial for DARE when I was a kid. I pray all time that someone somewhere has destroyed any evidence of this!
She's inspired by sweets. I replicated van Gogh's "Starry Night" in icing for my sister's birthday using a slew of cupcakes and Thin Mint cookies.

Early Years:
Light up the Stage!
Growing up in Hampden in northern Baltimore, Hope's stage presence became obvious at a young age. She sang with her church choir, school choirs, and in school musicals. She even took home the $50 grand prize during a middle school talent show! Her courage to perform for large audiences drove her to audition and win acceptance into the All-County and All-State Choirs, and she even performed at Meyerhoff Symphony Hall. No stage fright here!
What we know about Hope:
Hiking her way to EBS
In the summer, we most often find Hope with her Chocolate Lab fur-baby, Kona, playing at the dog park, hiking mountain trails, or swimming at the beach. Hope says, "I am a summer girl, so you'll find me outside in the warm sun, any chance I get." She certainly loves to enjoy the outdoors, but now that she has hiked her way to EBS, Hope's a ray of sunshine for our team as well!
Hitting it outta the park: I performed at Oriole Park while singing the National Anthem with the Perry Hall High School Chamber Choir.
This one time, at band camp? I was the Pom Captain for my high school marching band's pom squad, and during practice I was attacked by wild geese.
Rap it out: I can rap every word to Sir Mix-A-Lot's "Baby Got Back."
The Mad Food Scientist: I will eat soup and crabs all year round - soup even in 100-degree weather, and crabs for Christmas. I also like odd food mixtures such as burnt popcorn and ketchup. (No judgement until you try it!)
