Today was a special one at BNI Parkland — Luis Carrascal delivered his very first feature presentation! 🎉
Luis's story is one the room loved hearing. Born in Lima, Peru, his journey took him to Montreal, then Toronto, and back to Montreal again before eventually heading west to Edmonton in 2007. Along the way he built a career in hospitality and even owned his own restaurant — and it showed the moment he got the room fired up talking about his beloved Montreal Canadiens. 🏒
Today Luis is with Allstate, helping people with auto, home, condo, and roadside assistance coverage — bringing that same hospitality mindset to every client relationship. Personalized advice, real relationships, and support when it matters most, especially during a claim.
If anyone in your circle needs a second look at their insurance, Luis is your guy.
Congrats on your first feature presentation, Luis! 👏
