Meet the Founder

Built on relationships,
earned through results

Aaron Hennings founded Trailside Risk Partners on a simple belief: insurance should be a relationship, not a transaction. With designations spanning risk management, construction, and workers' compensation, Aaron brings rare technical depth to every client conversation.

He partners with each client to map exposures, close gaps, and stand beside them through every claim — so you can move forward with confidence.
