Our Staff

 

Fred Mansbach

Fred began his career when insurance policies were written on stone tablets and premiums were paid with beads.

Fresh from CCNY, earning a BBA in insurance, and military service, where he attained the rank
of sergeant, he joined All Risk full-time in 1959 and has been there ever since.

PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES: He is a founding board member and officer of the Professional Insurance Wholesalers Association of NY and has served on various committees in that organization.

LEISURE TIME ACTIVITIES:  Solving crossword puzzles is his idea of sport participation but he is an avid rooter for all NY teams.  His wife, Toni, is a Weight Watchers leader so you know he eats properly (at home anyway).  Alix, Fred's daughter, is currently attending graduate school majoring in Social Work.

Maya Cruz

In 1983, Maya was hired to combine the files of Continental and Marmorstein Agencies.  At the time it was offered as a two week temporary position.  This has developed into the longest two weeks of a lifetime.  She worked part time while attending William Paterson College until graduating in 1987 with a BA in English.  Full time work with the firm began immediately on graduation, and growth as an underwriter has continued to the present.  In 1999 Maya crossed the Hudson River to head up CESI Agency in New York City.  Hard work and long hours have generated many new and valued NY relationships.

PROFESSIONAL ACTIVITIES:  Maya obtained her CPCU designation in 1995 and attended the conferment ceremonies in Hawaii.  She has served as the NJ CPCU Chapter Good Works committee chairperson and as director on the NJ Surplus Lines Association and NJ Young Insurance Professionals boards.
 

LEISURE TIME ACTIVITIES: In December 2003 Maya joined the ranks of motherhood and now life is just  "Hannah delightful." Maya loves music of many kinds, photography, travel (especially her annual trip to New Orleans Jazzfest) and gourmet cooking. She's a sports fan, with particular loyalty to the NY Giants and Yankees
(and even if the Giants lose, the tailgate was a blast.)

LEISURE TIME ACTIVITIES:  Lily met the loves of her life in 2001 when she had twin daughters.
