Chris Korthaus ChFC, CLTC

President & Principal Agent – CK Insurance Group

Chris Korthaus is the Founder and Principal Agent of CK Insurance Group, an independent insurance agency serving individuals, families, and businesses throughout Ohio. Since founding the firm in 2023, Chris has focused on building a modern agency centered on thoughtful advice, responsive service, and long-term client relationships.

In March 2026, CK Insurance Group expanded with the acquisition of the historic Hull & Hull Insurance book of business—continuing its legacy while bringing expanded resources and service to Central Ohio clients.

Chris holds active property & casualty and life & health insurance licenses and maintains the professional designations of Chartered Financial Consultant (ChFC) and Certified in Long-Term Care (CLTC). With more than a decade of experience in financial services and insurance, he works closely with homeowners, professionals, and business owners to design personal, commercial and life insurance strategies that protect what they’ve built.

Chris lives in Columbus, Ohio with his wife Emily, their son Carter, and their dog, Cheddar.

Grace Church

Executive Assistant & Operations Mgr.

Grace Church serves as the Executive Assistant and Operations Manager at CK Insurance Group, where she leads marketing, logistics, and operational strategy to support a detail‑oriented, client‑focused practice. After graduating from The Ohio State University in 2018, Grace built her career in the nonprofit and professional sports industries before transitioning into insurance in 2025. CK Insurance is her trusted provider for personal and professional needs, making it a natural fit for her values and professional growth.

Outside of CK Insurance Group, Grace channels her passion for movement and community through her ownership of TREMBLE Columbus. She lives in the Short North with her husband, Adam, and their three pets – and when she’s not supporting operations, you’ll most likely find her at TREMBLE.
