Byron continues to serve as Aspire General’s President and CEO since joining in 2015.
“It was a natural progression and the right next step for Aspire to have Byron move into the role as Chairman of the Board,” said Jerry Keenan, past Chairman, and majority stakeholder of Aspire General. “Byron’s deep understanding of the insurance industry, combined with his strategic vision and leadership experience, makes him the ideal candidate to continue to lead Aspire into the future.”
