About Us

Kohlhase Insurance was founded by Lee Kohlhase on April 1st, 1978 as a Family-Owned, Full-Service Independent Insurance Agency, just two years after graduating from Arizona State University, where he received his degree as a Finance Major with a Minor in Insurance. Lee's educational background and financial interest created his desire to serve his community in the Financial and Insurance Services Industry. Since it's beginning, the agency has grown to over 20 people, including Lori Gibson, Lee's daughter, who began working in the agency in 1998. Lori also graduated from Arizona State University with a Wildlife Biology Degree. Lori worked with the BLM before joining Lee at the agency. Since 1998, Lori has obtained her CIC (Certified Insurance Counselor) and CRIS (Construction Risk and Insurance Specialist) designations.
