Meet Your Colorado Springs Colorado Team

DeEtte Kozlow

Originally from Wisconsin, I traded beer for wine—but cheese remains a favorite food group. A fun fact: one of my first jobs was performing opening night at lip-sync contests around Denver. I enjoy hiking, off-roading, and horseback riding. Now retired from gymnastics coaching and dance choreography, I still dance in the kitchen to “No Diggity.” I love travel, epic adventures, and photography—especially capturing nature.

Emilee Hensley

I was born and raised in Northern California but made my way to Colorado in 2019. Once thinking I would pursue a career in counseling, I graduated with a bachelor’s degree in psychology in 2020. My passion for helping others, has landed me a career in insurance! When not at work, I enjoy spending time outdoors, exploring new places, and most of all spending time with my family.

Jeff Tarnowski

Life is all about making memories with my wife and kids. We’re always looking for our next adventure, whether that’s traveling and exploring somewhere new, attempting “Nailed It!” style baking challenges, or getting a little too competitive during family game nights. I believe life is best enjoyed through new experiences, good music, and tons of laughter.

Jordan Venner

Jordan is a passionate musician and multi-instrumentalist, primarily playing guitar. Outside of music, Jordan enjoys hiking, collecting vinyl records, caring for plants, and relaxing with the occasional glass of wine. These interests keep Jordan balanced and creatively inspired in both personal and professional life.

Kimmie Pervez

Originally from Louisiana, Kimmie made Texas home in 2018. With 15 years of insurance experience, she enjoys building lasting client relationships and helping people feel confident about their coverage. A Culinary Arts graduate, Kimmie loves cooking, entertaining, and relaxing on her Texas-sized back porch with music. She’s the proud mom of four adult sons and enjoys traveling to visit family, making memories with friends, and spending time with her two rescue dogs, Daisy and Bear.

Kyle Heredia

When not helping my business clients, I enjoy everything outdoors including hiking, camping, and kayaking. Also, I like to spend quality time with my fiancé, family, and friends. You may catch me at a nearby restaurant indulging in a culinary experience or hanging out at the local watering hole time to time too.

Rob McKay

I’ve been happily married for 38 years, with two amazing daughters and two wonderful grandchildren who remind me what truly matters. I believe life gives back what you put in – whether it’s volunteering with the Assistance League of Denver or helping others in need. When I’m not working, you’ll find me fly fishing, cycling, or exploring global cuisine.

Shantina Lusk

As a licensed insurance agent with over a decade of experience, I’ve learned a lot about protecting what matters most to people. But when work is done, my absolute favorite thing is to relax and make memories with my amazing family. We love exploring new places and just enjoying each other’s company. It’s the perfect balance to a rewarding career!

Zachary Kalthoff

I grew up in Colorado as a native and have moved all over the state during my life here. As such I like a good deal of outdoor activities, especially during the summer months. But the water is where I’m truly at home, as I often describe myself as ‘fish that walks like a man.’

Neighbors Helping Neighbors, One Policy at a Time

Your Local Independent Agents in Colorado Springs

Two things drive property insurance in this town, and everybody here has lived through both. Hail, which arrives every year and has made Colorado Springs one of the most expensive places in the country to insure a roof. And wildfire, which does not arrive every year but changed how carriers look at the whole west side after Waldo Canyon and Black Forest.

Being independent is what gives you options in a market like this. We shop more than 80 carriers, we know which ones are still writing where, and when a carrier nonrenews you we treat that as the start of the conversation rather than the end of it.

Our office is on Dublin Boulevard, and we take care of neighbors across Colorado Springs, Monument, Falcon, Fountain, Manitou Springs, and Woodland Park.

What Coverage Around Here Really Has to Account For

Your roof and how the policy pays for it

Many Colorado policies now schedule roofs on actual cash value, subtracting depreciation based on age, or apply a separate roof deductible on top of everything else. On a 15-year-old roof after a hailstorm, that can leave you paying most of a replacement on a covered claim. It is the single most consequential line on your declarations page and it is written in language nobody can parse. Send it to us.

Wildfire risk scoring

Carriers rate property here using wildfire models that score your specific parcel on slope, vegetation, access, and distance from a responding station. Two houses on the same street can score differently. That means mitigation work counts: defensible space, ember-resistant vents, a Class A roof, clear gutters. If you have done that work, document it and let us take it back to the market. A nonrenewal from one carrier does not mean every carrier will decline you.

Vehicle theft

Colorado has spent recent years near the top of the national theft rankings. Comprehensive coverage is what pays for a stolen car. Liability-only pays nothing.

Military families

Between Fort Carson, Peterson, Schriever, and the Academy, we do a lot of PCS work. Orders create the kind of problems a call center handles badly: address changes across state lines mid-term, storage coverage for a vehicle you are not driving, renters coverage on post and off, and the gap that opens when one policy cancels before the next binds. Bring us your orders and we will line up the dates.

Your dwelling limit is probably behind

Front Range construction costs have moved a lot, and homes insured to a figure set a few years back are frequently underinsured now. Extended replacement cost and building code upgrade coverage both matter here, and in a total loss they are where the real money is.

What We Cover

Personal

Auto, home, condo, flood, renters, landlord and rental property, life, health, Medicare supplement, motorcycle, recreational and RV, personal property, pet, and umbrella.

Business

Business owner’s policies, commercial auto including hired and non-owned, commercial property, general liability, workers compensation, group benefits, health, life, bonds, directors and officers, errors and omissions, and commercial umbrella.

Frequently Asked Questions

My insurance was nonrenewed because of wildfire risk. What now?

Do not treat it as final. Carriers use different wildfire models with different cutoffs, so a property one company declines is sometimes acceptable to another. Bring us the notice along with documentation of any mitigation work: defensible space, roof class, vent screening. We will take a complete picture back to the market, and if the standard market is closed we look at surplus lines before anything else.

Is my roof covered at replacement cost or actual cash value?

Look for a roof surfacing endorsement, a roof payment schedule, or a separate roof deductible on your declarations page. If it is unclear, send it over. Many Colorado policies now pay roof claims on actual cash value, subtracting depreciation by roof age, and on an older roof that gap is severe.

What is the minimum car insurance required in Colorado?

Colorado requires 25/50/15: $25,000 in bodily injury coverage per person, $50,000 per accident, and $15,000 for property damage. A newer vehicle clears $15,000 in property damage by itself. Look at 100/300/100 before you decide.

Can you help military families at Fort Carson or Peterson?

Absolutely, and we do it constantly. Multi-state moves, mid-term address changes, storage and non-operation coverage, renters insurance on post and off, and the handoff between states. Bring us your orders and we will build the timeline so nothing lapses.

Why did my homeowners premium go up when I never filed a claim?

Because carriers reprice whole territories after major hail and wildfire years, and rebuilding costs have risen. Your increase may have nothing to do with you personally. That is when shopping actually pays.

Heather B.

I highly recommend Equity Insurance Group—it’s the company I personally trust and the one I consistently suggest to my clients. Their team delivers exceptional service: they’re responsive, knowledgeable, and make the entire insurance process straightforward and stress-free. Working with Jordan is always a pleasure; his professionalism and attention to detail ensure that every client receives outstanding care and confidence in their coverage.

Justin P.

I have been a client of Equity Insurance Group for the past decade. They regularly check in with me to make sure I am appropriately covered, and shop around my insurance to make sure I still have the best price. When I've had to make claims, they've helped me through the process and never hesitated to advocate for me. Nobody wants to deal with their insurance, but EIG makes that process as painless as possible!

Alecia F.

I’ve had a great experience with Equity Insurance Group! I really appreciate how patient and helpful they are — I asked a million questions about my policy, and every single one was answered clearly and thoroughly. Their customer service is excellent. Anytime I need to make changes or have an issue, they handle it with kindness and professionalism. What I especially love is being able to work with someone face-to-face. It’s so much better than just talking to someone over the phone — it makes the experience feel more personal and trustworthy.

Jesus & Alexander G.

With a growing family and another baby on the way, peace of mind means everything to us. Equity Insurance Group made sure we’re covered from every angle — home, auto, and life. They treat us like family, not just another policy number. We couldn’t ask for a more caring, trustworthy team!

Mallory K.

Mia was absolutely amazing! We needed quotes quickly to close on a new home, and everyone else gave us exorbitant rates with high deductibles that wouldn't work with our growing family. In a day, we had everything we needed from Mia to move forward with a carrier she found who had solid price points and coverage. Thank you, Mia, for making this process so easy!

Brandon D.

I’ve had a fantastic experience with Equity Insurance Group. From the start, their team made the process easy to understand and stress-free. They took the time to explain all my coverage options and helped me choose a policy that truly fits my needs and budget. What impressed me most was their responsiveness and how quickly they handled any questions or concerns I had. It’s clear they genuinely care about their customers. I feel confident and well-protected knowing I’m insured with Equity. Highly recommended!

Amy C.

Jordan at Equity Insurance Group is amazing! He also takes great care of all of my personal insurance needs and answers every question that I have. I am a Realtor and he is also fantastic at providing excellent service to my real estate clients that I send his way. I never hesitate referring him to anyone!
