About Optimal Insurance AZ

Jeremy Besse

Agency Owner

Raised in Phoenix, Jeremy has seen this valley grow immensely since 1984 and has been part of this community serving as an insurance agency owner since 2006. Prior to insurance Jeremy helped clients improve their homes as a handyman from 2002 to 2006 so helping people comes second nature to Jeremy. Graduate with a marketing degree from Arizona State University in 2002 Jeremy has a full understanding of how to provide customers with exceptional service and carefully walks the lines between the insurance companies and clients to maximize coverage and minimize rate. When he is not helping people with insurance Jeremy enjoys spending time with his family, traveling about this amazing planet and working with amazing charities to give back to our community the best he can. As director of The Besse Family Foundation we aim to benefit 4 charities a year either with funding or volunteerism. Without amazing support from amazing clients like yourself, none of the above is possible so we consider ourselves extremely blessed to have you as a client.
