Mutual Fund Investment Specialist**

Welcome to Sande Insurance and Financial Services Inc! As the new agency owner, I feel very fortunate to live and work in a community as beautiful as Airdrie. My career with Co-operators began in 2015 when I started working for Mike and Kim Acheson at the Rocky View Insurance Services Co-operators office here in Airdrie. At that time, my family and I had recently relocated to Airdrie from Calgary where I had previous experience in the banking and insurance sectors. During the past decade I have had the incredible privilege of being mentored by both Mike and his late wife Kim. The dedication to their community and ensuring that the client always comes first are qualities that I deeply admire and will continue to emulate here at Sande Insurance and Financial Services Inc.

My insurance career with Co-operators started in 1977 primarily in Commercial Lines Underwriting and moving to sales in 2006.

I do specialize in business insurance, assessing your needs and providing recommendations.  

This combined with the knowledge of our home, auto, farm, life and investments makes our office the best choice for one stop shopping.

I started working here in September 2024, but I’ve grown up in this community. Coming from a big family, I’ve always valued connection, trust and helping others, values that align closely with what we stand for. My goal is to help people better understand the insurance industry and feel confident in the protection and support we provide.

Jacqueline Haden

Associate Insurance Advisor

Originally from Calgary, I have been a proud Airdronian since 1999, watching Airdrie grow from a small town to the city it is today, while appreciating that it still has that small-town feel. My career with Co-operators began as my last of 4 children headed off to school in 2010. My first role was the Client Contact representative; I soon realized that I wanted to be able to interact more with our clients and help with all products we offer. I now help clients with all their auto, home, farm, and commercial policies. I am passionate in helping you understand how your insurance policy and coverages work while giving you exceptional service. In my 15 years here, I have established many relationships with our clients and know many by name and the sound of their voice! When I am not in the office, I enjoy spending time with my family, gardening, starting a new home renovation project or icing a birthday cake!

Nicole Toren

Associate Insurance Advisor

I joined the Co-operators in 2022, starting in client contact and now working as a Level 2 licensed Associate Insurance Advisor. A large part of my role focuses on client care - including reaching out to schedule reviews of their policies, making sure they’re properly covered and supported as their needs evolve. Alongside this, I assist with auto, home, and farm insurance changes—with a soft spot for farm coverage, given my own roots in agriculture.

Outside of the office, I live on 10 acres between Cochrane & Airdrie, with my husband and our four horses. I am an artist and photographer and I’ve volunteered for many years with AARCS as both a foster and advocate for animal rescue. When I'm not spending time in the saddle, I also enjoy riding motorcycles and have a passion for supporting local makers, small businesses and community initiatives. For me, client care is about more than insurance—it’s about truly understanding the unique needs of each of our clients and building lasting connections.

I'm passionate about helping people find the right solutions to meet their needs. I'm currently working towards completing my Mutual Funds Licence to better serve my clients with informed, personalized advice.

When I'm not working or studying, you can usually find me reading a good book, exploring the outdoors on a hike or spending time with my dogs. They're my favorite trail companions and bring so much joy to my everyday life. I believe in building genuine relationships and making sure my clients feel supported, understood and confident in their choices.
