Meet Chris McCray<\/h1><\/div>

Where is your hometown and did<\/strong> you grow up around farming?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I was born in Fort Wayne, Indiana and raised in Pensacola, Florida.\u00a0 Though my immediate family is not involved in farming it certainly plays an important role with my extended family; I\u2019m a nephew and cousin to the Silveus family and their love and interest in farming definitely influenced me.\u00a0 Steve Silveus always said I could come up to Indiana and join the family business, which I did after moving back to Warsaw in 1999.<\/p>\n

What are your clients asking you about today?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

Silveus is the industry leader in private product development. Our portfolio of non-reinsured supplemental products includes those designed to be written in conjunction with a Federal insurance plan, and a number of stand-alone products. My clients want to know about new insurance products<\/a> that are relevant to their needs and about what I\u2019m seeing with other growers in the Midwest, mid-south, delta, and other areas I cover.<\/p>\n

What is your approach to customer service?<\/strong>\u00a0<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve learned through my time working for Silveus that excellent customer service is a priority. Customers should not have to ask for something if it\u2019s being done for them. It\u2019s important to meet and exceed expectations when it comes to customer service.<\/p>\n

How long have you been working at Silveus and what do you like best about your job?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I\u2019ve been here since the fall of 1999.\u00a0 I love working with my customer base and understanding and helping with the risk management needs they have throughout the year.<\/p>\n

What is one fun fact about yourself your co-workers don\u2019t know?<\/strong><\/p>\n

I started playing golf a few years back and it\u2019s become one of my favorite ways to unwind.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":6255,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"om_disable_all_campaigns":false,"_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[38,31],"tags":[99,25,40,73,28],"class_list":["post-1824","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-meet-the-team","category-silveus-insurance-group","tag-chris-mccray","tag-crop-risk","tag-meet-the-team","tag-silveus-crop-insurance","tag-silveus-insurance-group"],"yoast_head":"\nMeet the Team: Chris McCray -<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Meet Chris McCray, Crop Insurance Agent with Silveus Insurance Group.
