Meet Petyah Triche, Assistant Manager of Worker's Compensation at Broward Sheriffs Office

Q: What is one piece of advice for young professionals in the insurance industry?

Find people you can collaborate with.
Having mutually beneficial relationships with your peers can be just as beneficial to your career growth as having a mentor.
It’s helpful to align yourself with a peer at work, a peer outside your agency but within the insurance field, and even a peer outside of our field who has similar goals but a different approach.
Consider fostering long-term partnerships with peers you can grow with, learn from and build something alongside.

Q: Are you a sports fan? What’s your favorite team?

A: Dallas Cowboys!

Q: What do you find motivating?

A: My family. I constantly want to be better and work harder so I can be an example to my children. I want them to be the best they can be.

Q: Do you collect anything?

A: I would say nothing, I’m a minimalist. But my husband would say purses. Its all about perspective! *wink*

Q: What’s the most exciting part of your job?

A: No claim is the same so its never a boring day. Workers’ Comp for first responders can get pretty interesting. But mostly, I like helping people get back to them selves and back to saving lives.

Q: What is something you know now that you wish you knew when you started in the insurance industry?

A: I wish I knew that it was OK to ask for more money and advocate for myself in pay negotiations.

Q: Share a fun fact about yourself!

A: I’m obsessed with true crime stories and cults. In my past life, I was either a criminal or a detective. You choose.

Q: What inspired you to join RISE?

A: It is refreshing. There are many different associations, but none that feel this fun, innovative, engaging, and down to earth. I feel like I’m with my peers not my superiors.
