Enhanced Benefits Insurance Solutions, “EBIS” for short, was created out of a need to simplify enhanced voluntary benefits while still creating solutions that fit the needs of our broker partners and clients.​

ABOUT EBIS

MEET THE TEAM

Jack Holder

President

It was evident early on that Jack loved entrepreneurship. He believes that inspiration came from first watching and later, at age 16, working alongside his amazing grandparents to learn how to run a business. And there a passion was born.

​

After graduating from PSU, and a slight detour, America's finest city beckoned. Without a job or place lined up, Jack drove to sunny San Diego. After many interviews and thorough consideration, Jack decided to take a chance on insurance because it gave him the opportunity to help solve real problems.

​

He enjoys fishing, the outdoors and brewing his own beer. Fun fact: Jack worked and lived on a ski resort and a cruise ship.

Jackie Holder

Vice President Operations

Jackie has over 13 years enhanced benefits experience, gravitating towards industry and indirect technical advancements.  That interest and her out of the box thinking allowed her to grow to a top 0.4% nationally recognized carrier rep before co-founding Enhanced Benefits Insurance Solutions.

​

She moved to San Diego to obtain her Bachelors of Science degree in Business Management from San Diego State University. After graduating, she couldn't bring herself to move away from the great weather. Jackie is the mother of two lively girls, on the PTA board and involved with Girl Scouts. In her free time, she enjoys time with her family, baking, puzzles and a fierce game of billiards.
