Hi, I am Chris Batliner, Principle at Anchor Insurance Agencies. I’ve been in the insurance industry since 2009. My previous jobs include restaurant owner, construction, landscaping, package delivery, recycling services and my first jobs in fast food. I served in the Army National Guard as a Helicopter crew chief, where I earned the rank of sergeant. My wide range of experience has helped me to understand what drives a person and connect with people from a multitude of backgrounds. I take great pride in my agency and want my clients to as well. I am a member of the National Association of Insurance and Financial Advisors, BNI, Omaha Chamber and Wahoo chamber. I am from Lincoln, NE, where I attended Pius X High School and later UNL. I moved to Omaha in 2002 and lived here ever since. I am married to Erin Batliner and have 3 children: Logan, Kamden and Bristol. I am very active in my kids lives with sports, volunteering at school, and family outings. My hobbies include working out as well as playing basketball, golf, tennis, skiing, riding bikes, and watching movies. I love going to Husker football and basketball games. If I find myself without kids, my wife and I can usually be seen at a rock concert.

Favorite Teams: Huskers and the Raiders

Favorite Athlete: Bo Jackson and Charles Barkley. In today’s sports world, it’s LeBron James and Ndamukong Suh.

Hi, I am Eric Hancock. I have worked as an insurance agent since 2000 and a Principle of Anchor Insurance since 2010. I have over 14 years of financial service experience in which I have been an agent, a sales manager, VP of business development at a bank, and most notably a teacher. In 2010, I decided it was time to stop working for other people and start working for myself. The vision I had was to create an agency were agents had the freedom to choose products based on the clients needs not because of one insurance carrier’s products. I know that may sound simple, but we see this offense all the time in our profession. At Anchor Insurance Agencies, we are completely independent. We will not be beholden to any insurance carrier. Our Promise is to get your company, family member, or lil’ brother into the most affordable quality products available. Helping people is what I love to do. I don’t have free time because I have 5 kids… When I’m not working I enjoy coaching and working outside. I’m a tinkerer by nature and love to get creative. I have been married to my lovely wife Traci for 18 adventurous years.

If I won the lottery… I would give 50% of it away in a charitable trust, and then I would see the world…. Starting with New Zealand.

My NERD FACTOR is a love Turner Classic Movies channel and especially a fan of old movies with Cary Grant.

I am a fan of College athletics…I hate pro sports… just can’t wrap my head around paying someone that crazy money when our teachers are just getting by.

BUCKET list moment… I want to construct a rat rod.

If I were a superhero, I would be Captain America.

Hello everyone, my name is Drew Conway and I am happy to be your agent here at Anchor Insurance. I come from a small town in Nebraska. My wife Sarah and I, two sons, and our family pets live in Wahoo. We enjoy catching a Lincoln Saltdogs or Omaha Storm Chasers baseball game anytime we get a chance. II graduated from Harvard High School and pursued higher education at Doane College. I have been servicing clients since 2005 in the Wahoo area and throughout central Nebraska. Some of my favorite things in life are spending time with my family and friends, and meeting new people. In my free time I enjoy attending various sporting events. I also take pleasure in tinkering with wood and mechanical projects around the house.

Hi, I am Kristy Korte an independent agent at Anchor Insurance Agencies. I’ve been in the insurance industry since 2014. My previous career was in administrative nursing. I attend Central Community College for 7 years. I hold licenses and certificates in practical nursing, dental assisting, nursing home administration, life & health insurance producer, and property & casualty insurance producer. I was born and raised in Brookings, SD and moved to Nebraska shortly after graduating high school. I’m an extremely busy mother of 5 children. I have 3 boys and twin girls. My passion used to be gymnastics and professional water skiing. Now you can find me spending time at my kids sporting events, movies, trampoline parks, fishing, outdoor activities, and anything that involves my children.

I’m Tyler Clifford, I’ve been an agent with Anchor Insurance since 2014. Prior to starting my career in insurance I attended the University of Nebraska at Kearney and graduated with a bachelor’s degree in Business Management.

I have always had a passion for helping people and the Insurance Industry has proved to be a great career path to accomplish this. I have experience working with clients on dental, vision, disability, accident, health plans, and more.

I grew up on a ranch in Hayes Center, a small town in Southwest Nebraska. Staying busy was easy to do with checking cows, swathing, raking, bailing hay, fixing fence, and whatever else had to be done. I was taught to do things right the first time and this is the same approach I take with my clients.

My hobbies include hunting, fishing, boating and pretty much anything outdoors. I will rarely miss a Husker football game, only if it’s deer season. Thanks for taking the time to get to know me.

I graduated high school from Creighton Prep in Omaha and have a Bachelors from Bellevue University, in Business Informational Systems, and a Masters Certificate in History from the University of Nebraska at Kearney.

I have been married to my wife Ann for over 23 years and have two wonderful children Marlaena age 19 and James age 15. These wonderful people are the foundation of who I am, and keep me busy going to all the events they are involved in.

My hobbies, other than my family, and the Huskers are photography, hunting, and research on various topics.

By the way, the AG in my name stands for “Always Great”… I am kidding it is “Andrew George”

My name is Karen Boop, however I am often called Betty—which I answer to as well. Ron and I have been married for 27 years. Together we have four sons, one daughter, 2 foster daughters, and 7 grandchildren. During my 35 year Nursing Career I worked in Psychiatric Nursing, Intensive & Coronary Care, taught nursing for 9 years, worked in the Cath Lab for 10 years and finished with Emergency Room Nursing for 10 years. I retired from nursing in 2000.

In 2001 I took the H & R Block Income Tax Course and have been working with tax preparation since. I also work for the Wahoo Police Department as the Records Clerk. Volunteer Work is a big part of my life. I have been coordinating the Wahoo Bloodmobile since retiring from nursing. I work with the Friends of the Library, Youth Services, Crime Stoppers, Vacation Bible School & other church ministries, the Wahoo Community Chest and the Active Collaborative Team (ACT) of Wahoo. To honor Law Enforcement at Christmas, I decorate the Saunders County Law Enforcement & Judicial Center and the Wahoo Police Department with a blue theme for the “thin blue line” between the criminals and society.

For other interests I enjoy gardening, making Jams & Jellies, reading, collecting, and Victorian Memorabilia. My husband and I have been renovating the old Victorian house that we purchased when moving to Wahoo in 1993.

Hi there! I’m Ashley. I’ve been with The Anchor Team since August 2016. I am the office Manager in our Omaha office. I was born and raised in Omaha. I love working in the insurance business and helping our clients. I have a silly, spunky, 2nd grade daughter, Zoey. Together, we love going to the zoo, fishing, the park, bowling, camping, swimming, and playing outside, but she doesn’t like shopping. I’ve been coaching her softball team for the last 4 years. If we’re not at the softball fields, we’re at the sand courts, playing volleyball. I also really enjoy watching Zoey play basketball, something I was never good at. (She got the basketball skills from my sister.) Something about me is that I am always listening to music. When I get to the office in the mornings, the first thing I do is put music on. Get in the car, music. Cooking dinner, music. Feel free to stop by the Omaha office and say hello! I love meeting new people and having conversation.

Hi, I’m Nate and I am the Agency Director/CFO at Anchor Insurance. After running a small landscaping business for several years, I went to college to obtain a bachelor’s degree. Upon graduation, I began working in a captive insurance agency, acquiring my license in Property & Casualty, Health & Accidental, and Life Insurance. I am also a Nebraska Notary. When not at work, I enjoy spending time with my wife and three kids, shuttling them between activities and attending their events. My family enjoys traveling, exploring the outdoors, and learning about science. In my spare time, I like to go hunting, fishing, and golfing.

Hi, I am Ivan Sotelo, licensed agent at Anchor Insurance. I enjoy helping people which is kind of why I accepted to go down this career path. I typically am working down in the South Omaha/North Omaha area as I am bilingual with Spanish being my other language. I feel as if I can help a population that might be underserved. I grew up in Wahoo, Nebraska where I kept active in mainly sports such as football and wrestling. I currently live in Lincoln, NE and try to stay active whenever I can whether it be going to the gym and working out, playing basketball, or frisbee golf. Other hobbies I enjoy are playing video games, watching sports, or just going out with friends! My sports teams I like to follow are Carolina Panthers, Oklahoma City Thunder, Los Angeles Dodgers, and Huskers, GBR!
