The SCI Group Team

Meet Our Founder

I grew up right here in Lee County, FL (not many of us left). I graduated from Kaplan University in 2012 with a bachelor’s degree in accounting. In 2016, I decided to change course and join the insurance industry. Cubicle life was not for me lol! I started off in the supplemental arena (Aflac) and over the past 10 years, I’ve added private Health insurance, P&C – Property and Casualty, Life, Dental, Vision and Medicare to my tool belt with great mentors along the way.

Seeing people treated like numbers, the headaches and stress of filing a claim — I knew I could make a difference. Since then, I have been passionate about going above and beyond, delivering great quality service to our customers, and giving them the peace of mind they need.

My main goal has been to ensure my customers have the proper protection they need in ALL areas that affect their everyday lives. The values we cherish at SCI Group are to always be honest, reliable, and consistent in all aspects of how we run our business, giving customers the respect and care they deserve.

On a personal note, I have a beautiful wife and two children, ages 18 and 14. We love to spend time outdoors, traveling, movie nights and just plain ole’ having fun together. We have lots of animals! 10 chickens, three cats, a dog, a leopard gecko and a snake. It’s a busy household to say the least.

I appreciate everyone who has been with me from the start and watched me grow from both a business standpoint and a personal standpoint. Thank you for the loyalty you have shown me! I look forward to continuing to help my community with all their insurance needs. It always puts a smile on my face when I receive a text or a phone call saying “Hey, you’re the insurance girl right? So and so sent me your information and I need…”. The referrals are greatly appreciated! I hope to always be “your insurance lady”.

Office Manager

Hello everyone – My name is Rhonda Byrd, although some of you may know me by “Rockin Rhonda”. I have been the office manager at SGI Group since 2021. For those of you who do not know, Amber is my daughter! We are a mother-daughter dream team. I went to Riverdale High School. I have two beautiful Himalayan cats (Heidi and Little Man). On my downtime, I enjoy listening to music, reading my bible, watching great shows on Netflix and spending time with my fur babies and my grandbabies. My primary role at SCI is on the Aflac front. I assist with claim submission, scheduling appointments, making phone calls and sending lots of emails! If you have a claim and need help, please do not hesitate to call me. It gives me great pleasure to help you utilize your Aflac benefits to their full potential! I absolutely love providing claim payouts to policyholders. I know that when you’re in an accident or an unexpected illness strikes your family, the last thing you want to do is be worried about a claim. Just call me and I will take care of it and follow through until you receive your compensation. I look forward to helping with whatever you may need!
