Leilani Soliven
Aloha! I'm Leilani, a Licensed Insurance Agent and Premier Benefit Consultant, proudly born and raised in Hawaii. I specialize in simplifying health insurance options, particularly in the realm of Medicare, guiding clients through the transition from employer-based to individual coverage.
With degrees in Accounting, Psychology, and Information Systems, along with experience in both the Department of Defense and private companies, I embarked on a full-time career as an insurance agent in 2017.
Beyond my professional pursuits, I am deeply passionate about community service, with interests spanning travel, architecture, and outdoor activities. The Kupunas of Hawaii hold a special place in my heart, inspiring my commitment to giving back. This commitment is reflected in our Kare For Kupuna Podcast, where I provide helpful tips, insights, and valuable resources for all Kupunas of Hawaii.
Trina Simeona
Aloha! I'm Trina, and for over the past 10 years, I've proudly served Hawaii's Medicare needs as a Licensed Insurance Agent at Premier Benefit Consultant.
As a native Hawaiian and a mother of 5, I deeply understand the significance of health coverage. Whether you're new to Medicare, already have a plan, or making the transition from employer-based coverage, I provide personalized guidance through free phone or video consultations. My expertise ensures a streamlined Medicare experience.
Beyond my professional role, I actively engage in various organizations, striving to make a positive impact on lives. I am thrilled to channel my years of experience and knowledge into our Kare For Kupuna Podcast and become a valuable resource for the cherished Kupunas in our beautiful state of Hawaii! Mahalo.
