The client comes first. Period. That is the unanimous belief and creed of every team member at Fortune Insurance. With offices in Tacoma, WA, and Los Angeles, CA, companies up and down the west coast can benefit from the experience and commitment of the Fortune team.
Grant Baldwin
|
Having played with the “big boys” in the P&C world for years, Grant grew frustrated by the lack of impact he could provide to his customers. Feeling held back and not able to fully implement the depth of his ideas, he started Fortune Insurance with the goal of taking his experience, style and knowledge and applying that to both the underwriting community and, most importantly, his clients.
As a business owner himself, Grant understands the ownership mindset. He understands decisions have to be weighed and recognizes the responsibility that those decisions carry. He brings that perspective into every client relationship. Growing up in Western Washington, as well as having business interests in Southern California, Grant has developed and built strong relationships in both locales. When Grant isn’t with his clients, he enjoys spending time with family, wife Wendy, daughter Charlotte and son Beau. He’s an avid golfer, a diehard Seahawk fan and someone who truly appreciates each day. |
Cory Coryell, ARM
|
You could say insurance is in Cory’s blood, having grown up with his family’s multi-generational insurance agency in Kansas. After graduating from college, Cory moved out west, and enjoyed great success in various sales and marketing careers before gravitating into insurance. He has spent the last 20 years with large brokerage firms in and around Tacoma, WA.
What he found lacking in the bigger agencies were the “personalized service” approach he wanted to provide, and the control to find the most competitive solutions for his clients. So, he went back to his small broker roots, and joined Fortune Insurance in 2014. In this role, he can do what he loves, working with a wide variety of companies – everything from aerospace manufacturers to convenience stores. For Cory, it’s not just about offering insurance solutions, it’s problem solving and utilizing his professional talents to make sure his clients’ goals and needs are met. A Gig Harbor, WA resident and Rotarian, and University of Kansas Jayhawk, Cory enjoys world traveling, scuba diving, sports, and exploring nature with his wife. |
Karen Ingram

A boss early in Karen Ingram’s career told her, “Good insurance is not cheap, and cheap insurance is not good.” To Karen, that meant as an insurance professional she needed to provide education and bring value to her clients every day. It’s her job to be knowledgeable and sympathetic. Her dedication to client service is evidenced by the longevity of her client relationships – some lasting more than 30 years.
Karen came to Fortune Insurance, in 2015, after 32 years with regional broker who had morphed and merged more times than she could count. With Fortune, Karen has the freedom to unleash her “get it done” attitude and truly put her clients’ needs first. When she isn’t implementing insurance programs or solving claims problems, she’s a “serious” vacationer. A world traveler, she loves seeing new places and meeting new people. Karen and her husband (and travel partner) reside in University Place, WA. |
I hired Grant in the middle of an ongoing claim. Grant and his team stepped in on a complicated issue and delivered. His overall approach is honest, straight forward and he thinks outside the box. I know Grant battles for us when he needs to and I would highly recommend Fortune as they have become a true partner and valuable member of our team. |
Grant is an amazing insurance specialist as well as a great person. I am happy to have met him, and happy to have brought him and his team at Fortune in as our insurance consultant. I would recommend Grant to any who may be in need of assistance regarding insurance." |
