He then joined Title Resources Guaranty Company when it was in formation and was shortly thereafter elected as its President. He was also hired as a consultant to the New Mexico Insurance Department and wrote the title insurance regulations there. Later in his career he served as Texas Agency Manger for several different title insurance underwriters, as President of a title agency in Fort Worth, and as Reginal Counsel for another underwriter.
