Ron Swatfigure
Ron Swatfigure has been in the insurance business for over 10 years and got his start as a captive agent with Farmers Insurance. After a few years of growing business and helping clients through typical Colorado weather events (such as flooding, wildfires, and hailstorms), Ron determined that he needed to offer his clients a broader range of coverage to best serve them in the long term. He then became an independent insurance agent and opened his business Sun Mountain Insurance in 2016. With the freedom of an independent broker, and his partnership with Welch Financial Planning, Ron offers his clients flexibility and affordability with coverage available through multiple insurance agencies. In his spare time, Ron enjoys being active outdoors skiing, hiking, biking, and camping with his family.
