Michael York
PRESIDENT/PRINCIPAL OWNER
PRESIDENT/PRINCIPAL OWNERSomeone once told me that if you surround yourself with good people, good things will happen. Since founding the agency in 2002, that advice has helped Blue Moon Benefits Group grow to one of the most well respected and trusted health insurance agencies in North Carolina. Although I’m proud of our agency’s accomplishments, I’m even more honored to be working with the very best agents and support staff in the business. Originally from the Davie County area, I now live in Clemmons with my wonderful wife, Suzanne, and our two teenagers. When we aren’t traveling the globe, we enjoy time at Emerald Isle Beach or sailing the calm waters outside of New Bern. I feel blessed beyond words and look forward to many more of life’s adventures!
