The Reasons Insurance team is based in New Brighton, MN and serves clients throughout Minnesota and in other states where we are licensed. We're an independent agency: we work with several insurers, compare the options available to you and explain the differences in writing. You make the choice.
Team members
John Bosman — Agency Principal
John leads Reasons Insurance with more than 30 years of insurance experience across carrier home-office and agency-side roles. His work is less about being the only person a client talks to and more about setting the agency standard: clear explanations, practical coverage conversations, and steady follow-through. Day-to-day client work is handled by the broader Reasons team.
Matt Cisneros — Partner Agent
Matt brings more than a decade as a licensed agent plus experience in real estate and mortgage lending. That background helps him connect insurance decisions to the larger financial picture for households and families. He is especially thoughtful about life insurance because he has seen how deeply planning can matter for the people left behind.
Jeri Jelinek — Team Agent
Jeri has spent more than 40 years in insurance and brings both corporate and agency-side perspective to client conversations. As a second-generation insurance professional, she is known for helping people understand their options clearly rather than rushing them through a transaction.
Pete Wilson, CIC — Commercial Sales Specialist
Pete has more than 35 years of commercial insurance experience advising Midwest businesses. His role is especially valuable for business owners who need practical coverage guidance, contract-aware conversations, and steady commercial insurance judgment built from decades of client work.
Pedro Roman — Team Agent Assistant
Pedro supports personal-lines conversations, especially auto and home insurance, with a friendly and approachable style. His role helps clients move through insurance questions with less confusion and a clearer understanding of what comes next.
Edcel Mahinay — Team Agent Assistant
Edcel supports both commercial and personal insurance work, helping the team stay organized, responsive, and consistent. Her strength is dependable follow-through, which matters when clients need information, documents, or next steps handled accurately.
Mario Rosales — Team Agent Assistant
Mario supports both personal and commercial insurance clients as a first point of contact for the Reasons Insurance team. He helps keep conversations moving, gathers the information our agents need, and makes sure questions and requests get to the right person. Mario’s strength is communication. His friendly, responsive approach helps clients know what is needed, what happens next, and who on the team can best help them. Behind the scenes, he works closely with our licensed agents to keep the process organized and moving forward.
Brennan Blake — Marketing Representative
Brennan helps grow Reasons Insurance by building relationships with local businesses, homeowners, and community members. Through direct outreach and personal connections, he introduces people to Reasons Insurance and helps them explore home, auto, and business insurance options. Brennan takes pride in being approachable, building genuine relationships, and helping people find the resources and coverage they need.
