Joshua Garnish

I was born and raised in the Finger Lakes region in Canandaigua, attending St. Mary's Schools and Canandaigua Academy until embarking for higher education at Finger Lakes Community College for my associate's degree and finishing my bachelor's degree in Sports Management at St. John's University in Queens, NY. Following graduation I spent a few years in New York City working with Hostos Community College Athletic Department in the Bronx and the New York City YMCA in Manhattan.

After the sudden death of my mother, Julie, I moved back home closer to my family where I met the love of my life, my fiance, Zoe Dessis with whom I have two perfect children, Juliet and Sylas and our two amazing dogs, Boris (Golden Retriever) and Denali (Pitbill, Malinois, and Heeler mix).

I spent the past four years assisting the constituents of the 54th New York State Senate District with Senator Pam Helming in her district office located Geneva with a massive myriad of issues they faced with state agencies such as the Department of Health (DOH) with Medicaid/Medicare, Department of Labor (DOL), Department of Financial Services (DFS), Department of Taxation and Finance (DTF), Department of Motor Vehicles (DMV), Department of Transportation(DOT), State Liquor Authority (SLA) and Department of Environmental Conservation (DEC) to name a few and always seemed to reach a winning result on behalf of the constituent. Unfortunately, this also was not a forever job and I felt a greater calling to be a service to a different population. I decided that my skills and passion in assisting constituents would translate tremendously into the insurance field and now that has been jump-started thanks to the guidance of my future-father-in-law and President of Dessis Agency, Hector Dessis.

My biggest strengths are making the people around me smile and working tirelessly to ensure my clients are in the BEST position possible when it comes to health and life insurance. When a question or problem arises, which they do dealing with insurance agencies and the government, I solve it. I make myself available 24/7/365 for my clients. That being said, in my "free time" you'll find me with my family the most, whether it be adventuring through the many small, state and even national parks, attending the many festivals my fiance adores, enjoying a round of golf, or cheering on my favorite sports teams (Bills, Yankees, Knicks and Sabres).

Please allow me to help you, your loved ones or anyone you can think of, make an honest, professional and wise decision when it comes to their health and wealth. Thankfully we work for our clients and not the big insurance carriers which puts us in the best position to assist and fight for our clients. If you have any questions, reach out by phone, text or email anytime to me as I would love to work for you.
