  • Kris Deonanan: From Insurance Sales to Parang Music: A 12minconvo on Mastery, Service, and Finding Joy in Unexpected Places /Ep3857

About Kris Deonanan

Kris Deonanan is a seasoned insurance sales representative with over 19 years in the field, known for turning a career pivot into a lifelong profession. Originally seeking change after being denied support from a previous employer, Kris found unexpected success in a role many avoid—insurance sales. Despite the stigma, he’s mastered the art of conversation, connection, and resilience...

…Born and raised in Trinidad, Kris blends his professional life with deep cultural roots. A lifelong lover of Parang music, he began singing at the age of seven alongside his father and continues to bring that same rhythm and energy into everything he does.

What makes Kris truly remarkable is his ability to foster authentic, organic conversations—a strength that’s carried through decades-long friendships and his daily life. Whether he’s checking in with a friend, exercising to YouTube videos, or “randomly” calling with big questions, Kris shows up with heart and presence. His story is one of unexpected paths, bold transitions, and a bit of Trini magic.
