“Engage’s growth continues to be driven by employers and their advisors looking for a more complete approach to HR,” said Jay Starkman, CEO of Engage PEO. “Our model gives business owners access to experienced HR Consultants who are licensed employment attorneys, along with the infrastructure to support their day-to-day operations. As we continue expanding nationally, we’re focused on adding professionals who can bring that level of support to more companies in markets like New York.”
“Travis brings a strong mix of PEO, insurance, and client-facing experience,” said Patrice Alvino, group vice president of sales, Northern Divisions. “He understands how to work with referral partners and help employers evaluate the right solution for their business. We’re excited to have him join the team.”
Bell brings more than a decade of experience in PEO and human capital management sales, along with a strong background in insurance and risk-related solutions.

He has consistently achieved and exceeded sales targets, earning multiple Presidents Club recognitions while building long-term relationships across his market.
“I’ve spent a lot of time working with business owners on HR, benefits, and risk decisions, and those conversations are only getting more complex,” said Bell. “What stood out to me about Engage is the level of expertise behind the service. When issues come up, you’re not just getting a system or a standard answer. You’re getting guidance from people who understand the real implications for the business. That’s something both employers and referral partners value.”
