THE KSPA LIFE SETTLEMENT TEAM
Katharine Simmons, President and Founder
Katharine Simmons had been actively engaged in sales and marketing communications in the
commercial printing industry since 1981. In 2003 she formed KSPA, Incorporated as a broker
in this same field. After a total of 26 years specializing in commercial printing, she changed
her focus and created KSPA Life Settlements in 2007 within KSPA, Incorporated. The Company
is licensed as a life settlement broker. In addition to being a licensed broker, Katharine also has
her life insurance license. To round out her team she formed a partnership with Tara Shepard,
who also has her broker’s license in life settlements. This collaboration being a perfect fit,
accommodates all size groups in corporate and senior settings and effectively illustrates
the benefits that life settlements can bring to a person’s financial situation.
