Mike Griffith… he’s a legend in his own mind! Mike has been in the insurance industry for almost 40 years. He does everything from business and personal insurance to life and disability and isn’t afraid of fighting with underwriters to get the best policy and price for his clients. Mike enjoys sharing lunch with the team in the office, going to any and all activities for his grandkids and attending any sporting events (especially if the sports involve his grandkids!). But mostly he likes traveling with his Beautiful Wife!

Mike’s right hand is his wife, Kristin Griffith. She has a master’s degree in math, so naturally Mike put her in charge of the money. When she’s not balancing the books, Kristin likes baking and sharing her baked goods with everyone in the office, friends and family. She also enjoys sporting events and grandkid activities. Kristin and Mike love to travel when they can, either flying or driving — any chance to explore different parts of the world is a welcome opportunity!

Kaylin grew up in Bothell with a traveler’s heart that led her 39 countries before she returned to her hometown and settled in as a Producer at Griffith… right next to her Mom Julee. Connecting with real people in real time and making a difference for those folks are her favorite parts of her role at work. And when she’s not at work? Diving the oceans, dancing under the stars, supporting local businesses and tackling the great outdoors with her husband and pup make her a very a happy girl.

Jim has forgotten more about the world of insurance than most people ever know. He's a fixture around the place and just the right fit for a family-oriented, customer-focused company like Griffith Insurance Group and puts his BA in Business Administration to good use around the office. When he's not hooking people up with the best possible deal for their insurance needs, Jim likes to get out on the open road on a motorcycle and let the wind run through his hair.

When she isn’t wearing all of her hats at GIG and getting things done, Emma can be found motorcycle riding, camping or snuggling with her boyfriend and photographing nature. And eating anything and everything with cheese, because as she says, “Cheese is the BEST!!”. Isn’t it just?
