Erik Hasselquist believes health insurance shouldn’t be an annual scramble; it should be a smart, proactive strategy. As a Senior Insurance Broker with Health Insurance NW and a U.S. Army veteran, Erik helps employers and individuals move beyond the yearly renewal spreadsheet shuffle toward more intentional, cost-effective benefits planning.
Specializing in solutions ranging from traditional fully insured plans to modern level-funded strategies, Erik simplifies complex insurance concepts into plain English. His focus is helping businesses optimize cash flow, reduce unnecessary volatility, and ensure families have meaningful, reliable coverage.
Before entering the insurance industry in 2014, he performed internationally as a professional trumpet player before military service; experiences that instilled discipline, precision, and the ability to execute under pressure before gaining his industry expertise as an independent agency owner and as Associate Vice President of Sales for HSA Bank across the Pacific Northwest.
Outside of work, Erik is an avid runner and lifelong sports enthusiast who takes every opportunity to get outside and explore the Pacific Northwest with his wife and children.
