Licensed Insurance Agent
After two decades in the insurance industry — from leadership roles at Carlisle Fields & Co to serving as Marketing Director for HUB International, the world’s largest insurance firm — Ty saw a problem: too many people were being oversold or misled about their coverage.
That’s why he founded Carlisle Insurance Advising — to bring transparency, honesty, and real-world expertise back to Knoxville’s insurance marketplace.
Ty’s mission is simple: help you find the right coverage at the right price, without pressure or confusion.
✅ Independent — Works with multiple carriers, not captive to one

Why Choose an Insurance Advisor (Not an Agent)?
Most insurance agents work for one agency. That means they can only sell what their employer offers — even when it’s not the best fit for you. Ty Carlisle is different.
"As an independent insurance advisor, I use my vast network of connections in the insurance world to match clients with the right agent. Everything should be custom fit, there is no such thing as one size fits all, that is why I exist" - Ty Carlisle
Every business is different and every client is different. Sometimes insurance needs are very complicated and it is important to have an expert in your corner. There is always an expert agent custom fit for your needs. Ty knows that agent. His job is to understand your risks, and connect you to the expert for you.

I'm a property manager with 16 large shopping centers across TN. It's been so hard to find someone who can actually fit our needs. Ty found our agent who was able to put us on a master policy. Finally!!!

My Husband and I have an AirBnb business. We had been dropped from our previous provider without a claim. Ty put us in touch with an agent who had AirBnb's of her own and understood our situation. We got excellent coverage and even made a new friend!
