We had an incredible turnout for our Veterans Headshots on Veteran’s Day event, and I’ll be spotlighting some of the amazing veterans-turned-business-owners in our community over the next few weeks. 🇺🇸📸
First up is Rusty, the Schellman & Associates LLC agency owner for American Family Insurance. With more than three decades of experience across business development, operations, project management, cybersecurity, and aviation, Rusty brings a powerful blend of leadership and expertise to everything he does.
His journey began in the military as a Combat Helicopter Pilot, setting the foundation for the strategic thinking, discipline, and steady leadership that still shine through today. After transitioning into civilian life, he continued his path as a Corporate Pilot before moving into his current role helping families protect what matters most.
At American Family Insurance, Rusty and his team take a community-first approach:
“You work hard for the things in your life — we’ll work hard to protect them.”
It was an honor having him in the studio. Stay tuned for more incredible stories from our local veterans. ❤️
