Melissa's Menu Features Steve Gilmore from ServiceMaster by Gilmore

As the winner of Brownstone's "I'm Your Chef!" contest, Steve Gilmore, owner of Service Master by Gilmore, got to spend an afternoon with Brownstone Underwriter, Melissa Greene, who is also a chef and host of TV's Melissa's Menu. We received dozens of great recipes and narrowed it down to our 5 favorite and then let our social media fans choose the winner, and Steve's Lobster Casserole took the crown!

Melissa and her crew set up in Steve's kitchen this past week to film the special edition episode of Melissa's Menu. The episode will air in about 3 weeks, but we'll let you know the exact date after it is edited and ready to air.

In the meantime, enjoy these great photos from the day:

Note - the silly balloon animal hats were created by balloon artist extraordinaire and Agent Relations Manager, Alexis Kimball :)

Brownstone Announces Agent Relations Managers

Brownstone Insurance is pleased to announce the addition of two new team members -- Alexis Kimball and Don Allan. Alexis and Don join us as Agent Relations Managers, adding a new level of interaction and relationship-building to the Brownstone Program. Alexis and Don will be making the rounds to personally introduce themselves to our fantastic network of brokers over the next few weeks, but in the meantime, we thought you'd like to know a little bit about them.

Alexis Kimball recently joined the team at Brownstone Insurance as an Agent Relations Manager. Prior to working at Brownstone she managed the sales and marketing departments for multiple health clubs on the South Shore, including: Weymouth & Canton Clubs, Ten X Club and Super Fitness. She spends her weekends entertaining children's birthday parties with her company, Karacters for Kids. 

Alexis received a Bachelor of Music degree from Indiana University and has performed at many venues, including Italy and Washington D.C., and most recently is performing with Opera by the Bay in Duxbury.  She resides in Stoughton with her husband and enjoys gardening, tennis and exercising. She is very excited to be a part of the marketing team at Brownstone Insurance and looks forward to cultivating new relationships and spreading the good word about Brownstone's exclusive master insurance program.

Don Allan is the other new member of the Brownstone team, joining us as an Agent Relations Manager.  Don was born in Florida, raised in New England and currently resides in Abington.

With a background in Construction Management and as a Master Carpenter, Don has spent most of his career working for builders from Florida to Boston. These tools of the trade made insurance an easy transition for Don. Being analytical, precise and having the vision to build something from the foundation up, he excels in the same principles that will serve him well in the insurance industry.

Don likes to spend his time outdoors. From snowboarding and wakeboarding to mountain biking the Blue Hills, Don likes to be active. He also enjoys going to the gym and has taken on Crossfit as a new routine.  As a football enthusiast, he is involved in the local semi pro football league (NEFL) with the Hanover Chiefs. They support local food pantries and run football clinics for children throughout the South Shore.

Don also has a 6-year-old puggle named Rocky, who spends as much time in the car with him as possible.
