Rob Bowen brings a unique blend of honor, discipline, and entrepreneurial spirit to his role as Founder and CEO of Patriotic Insurance Group. A U.S. Navy veteran who served from 1987 to 1995, Rob’s military background instilled in him a deep sense of duty, integrity, and service — values that now underpin every aspect of his agency’s mission.
After transitioning from the military and working in finance and data roles, Rob entered the insurance world and in 2014 launched Patriotic Insurance Group in Chester, New York. Under his leadership, the agency provides tailored insurance solutions for personal lines, small- to medium-sized businesses, real estate investors, and specialty markets — always focusing on transparency, value, and client-first service.
Rob’s commitment goes beyond insurance — he is deeply invested in community service, especially supporting veterans and their families. He spearheads initiatives like the “Suits for Soldiers” program to help veterans re-enter the workforce with dignity. Through such efforts, he emphasizes that the agency stands not only for insurance protection, but also for honor, trust, and meaningful social impact.
Under Rob’s stewardship, Patriotic Insurance Group expanded its reach with the acquisition of Burkhard‑Evans, Inc. in Inlet, NY — broadening the agency’s ability to serve clients across New York and surrounding states. His blend of disciplined leadership, commitment to service, and insurance expertise has established him as a respected figure among clients, peers, and his community alike.
Rob Bowen represents the ideal of a veteran-turned-entrepreneur: combining military-rooted values with professional acumen to build an agency that protects what matters most — while giving back to those who served.
