We want you to get the service you deserve.
About Us
Built on Experience. Driven by Service. Rooted in the Virgin Islands.
Great Lakes Life & Health was founded by industry veterans Steve Baker, Mark Braddell, and Christina Farley, who bring a powerful combination of deep local insight and global insurance experience. Steve, with over 50 years in the life and health insurance field and more than three decades serving the Virgin Islands, has long been a trusted name in group health and personalized coverage. Mark, a resident of the USVI since 2003, brings international expertise from his work with commercial and governmental clients across Europe, Asia, and the Americas.
Together, they recognized a clear need in the Virgin Islands for an insurance firm that blends world-class knowledge with reliable, customer-first service. Great Lakes Life & Health was created to meet that need, offering tailored insurance solutions, responsive support, and a genuine commitment to the communities we serve.
