Ryan Nash, Founder & Owner
Bird Dog Insurance was founded in 2020 by Ryan Nash, in honor of his grandfather, Jim Lockridge, a devoted bird dog hunter and a mentor to Ryan. The name carries that spirit into everything we do: to be loyal, alert, and always ready to point you in the right direction. That's the standard Ryan holds the whole team to, whether you're insuring your first car or a working ranch.
