Welcome to another episode of NuvoDesk Member Spotlight, a series where we highlight the entrepreneurs and business leaders growing their companies from our coworking community in Arlington, Texas.

In this episode, host Parker Neal sits down with Kevin Ristau of Ristau Insurance Services, a veteran-owned insurance agency based in Grand Prairie, Texas.

Kevin has been in the insurance industry since 1997 and has been self-employed for over 16 years. Licensed in 17 states, he specializes in Medicare, life insurance, health insurance, dental, vision, hearing, and long-term care solutions for individuals and families.

As a local Medicare broker serving Grand Prairie and surrounding DFW communities, Kevin stands out by meeting clients face-to-face, traveling when necessary, and building long-term relationships. Unlike captive agents, he works with multiple carriers, allowing him to shop for the best plans based on each client’s needs.

In this conversation, Kevin shares:

• Why relationship-building is the foundation of his business

• Common myths about Medicare and insurance pricing

• Why agents don’t set insurance rates

• The importance of locking in coverage when you are younger and healthier

• Why networking through Chambers and Rotary drives real growth

• What it means to forge your own path as a self-employed professional

Kevin has maintained a shared office at NuvoDesk since the coworking space first opened. He values the central Arlington location and the professional environment it provides when meeting clients from Fort Worth, Dallas, and surrounding cities.

At NuvoDesk, we go beyond office space. Through our podcast and media platform, we help showcase the businesses growing inside our community and support entrepreneurs with visibility, flexibility, and professional space.
