MGA Eli Hazen

“Whether you think you can or think you cannot, you are right.” These words from Henry Ford are the driving force that has motivated Eli to become successful and achieve his dream of becoming one of the Managing Directors of Surace-Smith Agencies of American Income Life.

Eli was born and raised in Cincinnati, Ohio and currently resides in the great city of Columbus. After high school, Eli attended The Ohio State University where he graduated with a Bachelor of Science Degree in Communications.

Eli came to American Income Life after leaving a salaried position with a well-known financial institution to have the opportunity to pursue more.   Being unsatisfied with potential earning limits at his former position, he decided to leave the corporate world behind to pursue “Opportunity Unlimited”.  Before advancing to the highest level of training offered at AIL, Eli was one of the top producers recognized internationally in 2010 and he has never looked back.  The opportunity to work with Surace-Smith Agencies and American Income Life has given Eli the chance to give back to his new representatives by helping them change their lives professionally and financially.
