Richard Dingle - Founder & CEO

Richard Dingle
Founder & CEO
My name is Richard Dingle, and I’m the proud founder of Dingle Agency, an independent life insurance brokerage based in Houston, Texas. Born and raised in Jamaica, I came to the United States in 2008 at just 14 years old, carrying with me the core values my mother instilled—especially her belief that “love is not what it says, but what it does.” That principle became my compass.
The road to entrepreneurship wasn't easy. In both 2019 and again in 2022, I experienced homelessness, periods that tested my spirit but never broke my will. In the midst of that struggle, I was given an opportunity that changed my life—a chance to join the life insurance industry through a captive company, Globe Life. It was there that I discovered my passion for helping families protect what matters most, and where I also met the love of
my life, Symphony, who is now my wife and business partner.
After spending over two years building our agency under the Globe Life umbrella, Symphony and I realized that to truly serve our clients with the care and customization they deserve, we needed more than just one company’s offerings. That realization led to the birth of Dingle Agency LLC—an independent brokerage dedicated to providing honest, tailored solutions through access to multiple top-rated insurance carriers.
Let our story be part of yours.
With gratitude,
