About us

Insurance built around you and your future.

When I founded GreenShield Insurance Brokers in 2000, my vision was simple — to create a brokerage that genuinely puts people first. Having spent decades in the insurance industry, I witnessed firsthand how overwhelming and impersonal the process could be for individuals and families trying to protect what they had worked so hard to build. I knew there was a better way.

At GSIB, we have always believed that every person deserves access to honest advice, the right coverage, and a team that will fight for them when it matters most. Every policy we place and every claim we manage reflects the values we have held since day one — honesty, integrity, and genuine care for the people we serve.

Twenty-five years on, I am proud of the company we have become — one built on the Habib service values of trust and responsibility that continue to guide every client relationship we nurture. But above all, I remain committed to the same promise I made at the very beginning — to be in your corner, every step of the way
