About Jann


Veteran Restaurateur, Celebrity Caterer, Birmingham native, mother of six, and lover of cheese,  Jann Robinson is the agency principal and chief risk/insurance advisor at ASTORIA RMS. Jann began her insurance career as a management intern at Torchmark Corporation’s Liberty National Life Insurance Company. Twenty-five years later, after a memorable experience as Marketing Manager at Farmers Insurance, Jann started the Independent P&C Agency ASTORIA RMS.

With her Liberty National foundation, coupled with know-how as a mom of six, Jann has an uncanny ability to see the little things that others may miss. These skills are just what the insurance industry demands: solving problems, visualizing, and preparing for both the expected and the unexpected. With a business mission firmly based on the expressive customer service style that has guided Jann throughout her career, Jann employs these service principles as a risk management and insurance professional.

Jann Robinson’s ASTORIA RMS is here to solve problems, serve you, and connect you with trusted risk management solutions to ensure you are prepared for the unexpected. Do not toss and turn at night, fearing the unexpected; Just Call Jann.
