Corporate Vice President
Trisha Engelhart

Trisha L. Engelhart serves as Corporate Vice President of Orion Risk Management, an Alera Group Company. She has been in the insurance industry for over 30 years.

Trisha started in the insurance industry with a life agent in Orange County. She then transitioned to a position with an agency that provided her with foundation to build upon on the commercial side of insurance.

In 1996, she joined Golden Pacific Insurance Services, Inc. as a Senior Account Manager. During her time with this agency, she developed her expertise in the construction industry, and as a result was promoted to a Senior Account Executive position overseeing a team of account managers and assistants.

In April of 2001, she joined the newly created Orion Risk Management Insurance Services, Inc. as one of its original founding employees. She was responsible for laying the foundation of the policies and procedures that are still being used in the agency today. Trisha was quickly promoted to Corporate Vice President taking on the supervision of the servicing and administrative staff, in addition to her continued work as a Senior Account Executive on large construction accounts.

In 2010, Trisha was the lead team member that created an internet based OCIP Administration Program that allows subcontractors paperless access to certificates of insurance, payroll reporting and other administrative functions. This project was a huge accomplishment as it went from drawing board to enrollment of over 800 trade contractors in 45 days. She continues to be actively involved in this project as it continues to evolve to handle more processes for general contractors.

Along with holding her insurance and surplus lines license, at one point Trisha was one of only 14 people in the nation to have all three insurance designations– CRM (Certified Risk Manager-2002), CIC (Certified Insurance Counselor-1998) and CISR (Certified Insurance Service Representative-1996). She also has obtained her CRIS (Certified Insurance Specialist in Construction-2008) and is a Notary Public for the State of California.
