NEW YORK, NY / ACCESSWIRE / October 12, 2022 / Modern Life, a tech-enabled life insurance brokerage for advisors, announced today the expansion of its distribution team with the additions of two key new hires: Bill Ventura as Vice President of Strategic Growth and Ryan Mattern to lead Advanced Sales. The pair of life insurance industry veterans are the latest to join the organization, bolstering its lineup of experts supported by best-in-class technology.

Ventura and Mattern will work directly with the financial advisors that the firm supports by providing hands-on support for even the most complex client needs, enabled by technology. Both hires report to Dan Pierson, Modern Life's Head of Distribution.

"We are excited to welcome Bill and Ryan to the team, where they'll be instrumental in helping advisors secure the coverage that modern clients need and expect, with a seamless application process and unparalleled support," said Pierson. "Our investments in our brokerage team will help advisors place more business and provide their clients with the best outcomes for their unique situations. At Modern Life, we are the advisors' advocates working hands-on with their cases through each stage of the life insurance process."

Bill Ventura joins Modern Life after 22 years at Lincoln Financial, where he was most recently responsible for the distribution of Lincoln's core life products to national accounts. Ryan Mattern joins Modern Life following 18 years at Crump Life Insurance Services, where he supported high end advisors in complex case design and management.

Modern Life's newest hires join the firm's advanced brokerage services team, which includes brokerage managers Steve Loving, Brandon Parry and Nick Weiler. The team, whose members boast an average of more than 20 years' life insurance experience, supports advisors and their clients with a deep level of involvement from start to finish, including:

  • Underwriting experts, supported by physicians, to perform detailed medical evaluations and advocate for clients based on medical evidence

  • Advanced planning professionals to craft the most effective solutions and educate advisors
