June 8, 2015

We would like to officially welcome Arvind Pandher to the Costen & Associates Team!

Arvind joined us in May 2015 and will be taking over for Peter O’Sullivan, who has moved to London. Arvind is currently completing a Bachelor of Commerce Degree in Risk Management (Insurance and Finance). He is a huge basketball fan and also loves to play poker. When he is not busy with work and school, Arvind enjoys spending time with his friends and family. Please join us in welcoming Arvind to the Costen & Associates family! arvind@costeninsurance.com

We would also like to wish Peter O’Sullivan the best of luck in his future endeavors. Peter started with Costen & Associates in July 2013 after moving here from Ireland on a two year visa. He has recently relocated to London, England. Peter will be greatly missed by the Costen & Associates Team and all of the clients who he assisted over the past two years. We hope to see him again on his next visit to Canada!
