Steven Mikuzis

I don’t have a job – I own two businesses that I created from the ground up. My success or failure depends on my will and expertise and I love that I am in the business of helping others. In the law, I make a living by solving major problems for my clients. With insurance, I am in the business of providing proper advice for my clients and ensuring that their carrier delivers on its promise when the time comes. However, the most fulfilling part of my role is as an agency principal and guiding a producer along the path I walk: developing a fruitful career in the business of helping others. To see someone “get it” is tremendously satisfying.

I am addicted to the sense of fulfillment that comes with helping someone reach their peak and that carries me forward in all facets of my life: whether it is my business, raising my children, my hobbies or my philanthropic interests. Why wouldn’t you want to work with someone whose heart is invested in your success?

Outside of my career and family, I am an avid triathlete, having participated in marathons, triathlons and Ironman races. I pay it forward by giving my time and money to charitable organizations dedicated to providing educational opportunities to those that cannot afford it. My education plays a huge role in my success and I believe everyone should have the same opportunity.

Non-Profit and Philanthropic affiliations:

Assistance is provided based on financial need. I did not appreciate at the time, but my education at Loyola laid the foundation for who I am today. Aside from academic curricula, Loyola taught me to pursue my life’s ambitions and pay it forward. I want others to have at least the option to share the same experience.
