Bridlewood Agent

Amber Ramirez was born and raised in Ramona, which is where her office is located. Amber’s stepfather opened the agency alongside her mother in 1971, and the family owned and run agency has been on the same street corner for 47 years.

In 2004, when Amber first started out as a Farmers agent, she started with zero policies while her mother had about 800. In 2006, her mother fully retired and Amber purchased the agency. Since taking it over, Amber has more than doubled the size of her number of clients, with 800 policies having grown into about 1,800.  Amber attributes a lot of that success and growth to the marketing and networking that she does in the community. Amber has been a Chamber Director for 11 years and she has been part of the Ramona Rotary Club since 2005, along with being the president of Rotary in 2013-2014.  Amber understands the importance of community and knows that Ramonans has never failed to support one another.

Deina, along with her husband Kent, joined Bridlewood after a friendship with Jeff Wetzel that began many years ago while they all worked at United HealthCare, which turned into a terrific business opportunity.  The choice to join Bridlewood was an easy one, as she would now be able to offer many Medicare options and carriers to her clients, friends and family. Her priority has always been to do what best for the client, and she didn’t feel she could do that when she could only offer them plans from one company. She loves to meet new people, find out what their needs are, and find the best plan that will give them peace of mind and confidence in their Medicare choices.  Putting the client first has always been Deina’s motto. With this in mind, she has managed to keep growing her business through referrals. She publishes a newsletter throughout the year and shares important facts with her clients and prospects.  Once you are Deina’s client, she will strive to continually serve you.  She offers her clients Supplemental plans through many top carriers, Medicare Advantage plans that work within a specific medical network, and Prescription Drug plans that help cover many of their prescription costs, with an emphasis on making sure you the find the best possible plan, at the right price, and keep your current doctor, if you like.

Deina and Kent have been long time residents of East County.  She attended High School in El Cajon (Granite Hills), raised her two sons in El Cajon and now has 4 grandchildren in El Cajon. In 2010 they moved to Ramona, and they love the more rural life. But, don’t let her zip code detour you, becomes Deina comes to you!
They have four adult children and eight grandkids. Papa and Mimi are their favorite names to hear.  She loves the flexibility her job gives her to spend a lot of time with her grandkids. When she’s not babysitting, Deina plays in a women’s tennis league, and enjoys hiking, camping, and their dog “Prince”.  This year, many lifelong dream trips were cancelled due to The Corona Virus, but she hopes they can reschedule those next year!

Now as leaders in their field with over 1,100 clients, they have built their business by making sure to “always keep their clients best interest first and foremost” in everything they do. Because this is first in how they conduct their business, 95% of their new business comes from current client referrals. They make sure their client is in the best plan for their situation and are available to answer questions most anytime that a client might have. They return calls! Kent and Deina have 4 children and 8 grandchildren. They reside in San Diego Country Estates in Ramona.

He has heard it said, “If you love what you do, you never have to work a day in your life” Well, in April of 2021, I will be writing my own Medicare policy. Will be turning 65.  Kent never plans on retiring as he loves meeting new people, as well as speaking to anyone of his over 1,500 clients. Many times we speak just to say hello or answer any questions that come up.  Kent and Deina love to travel and had big plans, but Covid put a hold on that. So, they love working in the yard and keeping their cars in showroom condition.  They also love to hike, bike, swim and play pickleball, and sometimes tennis when the joints are up for it.
