“Kirkland has done an outstanding job for Distinguished Programs in his prior sales role. His leadership in the military coupled with his previous sales experience as a pharmaceutical representative gives him a distinct advantage in the world of insurance sales. This adds unique value to our team and our broker partners,” said Kurt Meister, senior vice president of business development at Distinguished Programs.
Requejo believes his leadership and people-centric mindset builds strong relationships and helps to provide best-in-class, mutually beneficial outcomes for business partners and their clients.
Prior to his role with Distinguished Programs, Requejo’s role as a pharmaceutical sales specialist for Novo Nordisk allowed him to set successful benchmarks with his sales performance while simultaneously educating healthcare professionals.
Based out of Chicago, Kirkland holds a Bachelor of Science in Biology from The Ohio State University. He was awarded a Bronze Star for leadership in Afghanistan during his service in the U.S. Army.
