Evan Stewart’s journey in life and business is a testament to resilience and perseverance. Growing up in Ambridge, PA, Evan got his start in life insurance at just 17 years old as a recruiter for AIL, earning his license by 18. However, life threw its share of challenges his way—losing his mother, and brother, and experiencing homelessness. Hitting rock bottom, he made the decision to turn his life around in 2018. Determined to rebuild, he returned to work in life insurance, dedicating himself to mastering the business and never looking back. Today, with over seven years in the industry, Evan has built a career that not only provides for his family but has also allowed him to mentor and lead others toward financial success. Now a Regional General Agent, Evan has consistently ranked among the best, helping train the top-performing agent in the company. His work ethic, ability to influence, and determination have led to significant success, including earning substantial residual income. However, his proudest achievement is his family—his wife, Breann, and their son, Bentley. Outside of work, Evan finds passion in music and basketball, both of which have been outlets that keep him driven and focused. No matter the hardships he has faced, Evan’s defining principle remains clear: no matter how tough things get, he will always find a way to make it work.
