Chris LeBlanc chris@leblancfamilyinsurance.com - Manager - grew up in the Edmond Community. He went to school at Edmond Memorial High School and graduated in 1992. He was a standout basketball player that eventually landed a scholarship to attend Texas A&M University. After finishing his basketball career, he came back to the University of Central Oklahoma to complete his degree in Business Management. He married his high school sweetheart Jeannie Alexander and now they have two beautiful children: Kamber and Korbyn. Upon graduating, Chris started an insurance agency in Norman. He was a captive agent with Farmers Insurance Group. After working with Farmers for 5 years, Chris decided to sell his agency in Norman and start an independant agency in Edmond. He was given a chance to be back home, in the communicaty he grew up in. Chris has had his independent agency since 2002. One of the main reasons Chris left Farmers was not having the best rates possible for his clients. As an independent agent, Chris is able to move clients to different companies if one becomes uncompetitive or experiences a rate increase. This is what created the slogan "We'll Shop The Best Rate For You." This is what gives independent agents a competitive advantage over the competition (Farmers, State Farm, Allstate, & others). So if you want a great rate with outstanding service keep the LeBlanc Family Insurance in mind.

His corporate experience includes: Adminiserve, Inc, Gateway 2000, VASA North America, Inc., Allstate Insurance and Irwin Union Bank and Trust.

(executive coaching) based out of Lee's Summit Missouri before founding his own coaching company, Hershman Associates in 2001. Only within the last 10 years has Mark heard the Lord speak to him. He has joined a church where the purpose statement is: "Strangers become friends, friends become disciples and disciples change the world." Isn't that powerful? Mark is intentionally trying to learn a Christian Biblical worldview so he can discuss more purposefully how he wants to lead his life here on earth. His personal relationship with Jesus has really grown as he turned to coaching (not at all by chance). Recently he was coached to ponder his mission as a coach and here was the result: Mark wants to facilitate and educate individuals to live with a higher purpose.
