About Trans-Atlantic Commercial Insurance
An independent commercial insurance agency for businesses in Virginia, Maryland, and Washington, DC, built by someone who has seen insurance from the finance side, the carrier side, and the agent's side of the desk.
Meet Rodney Thompson, Founder and Principal
I started my career in financial services. After earning my degree in Business Management from Virginia State University, I worked as a stockbroker and then as a banker. Those years taught me how businesses think about capital, cash flow, and risk, and how quickly one uninsured loss can undo years of hard work.
From there I moved into insurance, joining a large property and casualty insurance company as a District Sales Manager. For nine years I recruited and trained insurance agents, teaching them how to evaluate a client's risk, explain coverage in plain language, and be there when a claim happens. Working inside a large carrier gave me a close look at how insurance companies operate, and a clear view of what business owners should expect from the person who sells them a policy.
After nine years in that role, I decided to apply what I had learned for business owners directly. I left the District Sales Manager position and started my own agency, Trans-Atlantic Commercial Insurance.
