Get to know us!
Caleb Runyan
As a husband and new father Caleb understands the importance of family and genuinely believes in protecting his family. He brings these values to work everyday to help his clients protect their family, businesses, farms, and more.
Caleb was mentored in the insurance world by George Abbott for years before joining with his family to take over ownership of Pacific Rim Agency. As an agent and owner Caleb is proud to serve clients throughout the Pacific NW and believe in giving back to the community.
When he’s not at the office Caleb enjoys spending time at home with his loving wife, sweet golden retriever, and their new baby girl. When he has some free time, you can find Caleb on boat where he serves as a guide or taking in the many wonders of the great outdoors in this beautiful part of the country. He’s an avid skier, hunter, and fishermen.
Kathy Bergstrom
Since the year 2000 Kathy has been a staple inside the office of Pacific Rim Agency. She has exceptional knowledge and is an expert in helping businesses big and small with their insurance needs.
Kathy is proud to call Molalla, Oregon home since 1995. When she isn’t in the office, she loves spending time with her friends and family, as well as enjoying the beautiful Pacific Northwest hiking. Kathy also enjoys photography and pyrography.
lisa Runyan
A lifelong Oregonian, Lisa has loved raising her family in the Willamette Valley. She has worked with her family business for many years in addition to working in the field of property management for over three decades.
Lisa brings her decades of experience and kind heart to work for Pacific Rim where she assists with the behind-the-scenes business activities such as bookkeeping and accounting. Always happy to help Lisa is also often the smiling face that greets you at the door or on the phone when you call.
When she isn’t working Lisa enjoys taking advantage of sunny days to golf, enjoy nature, and spend time with her dogs outdoors. She loves her family and enjoys spending time with all them as well as her friends. During the Winter season Lisa enjoys skiing with her family and is anxiously awaiting the day her granddaughter can join her on the slopes.
SCOTT Runyan
After three decades working in Aerospace Scott joined his family in purchasing Pacific Rim Agency from their close relative George Abbott. His background in the fast-paced and ever-changing world of that industry gives him ample skills to ensure that all of Pacific Rim’s customer will receive world-class service, the best information, and easy access to service.
Scott is a quick learner and already has picked up vast knowledge to assist his clients through a combination of good mentorship and his ability to learn rapidly. He understands how to get results for his clients and brings a positive, can-do attitude to work at the office each day.
When Scott isn’t busy working, he loves catching a sunny day on the golf course with his wife, Lisa. Scott, like his son Caleb, is an avid fisherman and the two of them relish the opportunity to get out on the water with a fishing pole in hand. Scott can also always find a smile spending time with his two dogs, Togi and Nola. And the biggest smile in his life is his new granddaughter.
