Paula Selvaggio: Cogence Founding Partner Emeritus

Retired from Oswald Companies in 2023.

Paula had over 30 years in the insurance industry with a dedication to loss prevention and pro active risk management for architects, engineers and contractors’ design exposures.   When she became part of Oswald Companies it was primarily because of the changes that are occurring in the industry where designers are involved in construction and contractors are becoming involved in design.  Oswald has 25 professionals in their combined design, construction and surety department and represent almost 700 architects and engineers and over 150 contractors and subcontractors.  Paula successfully placed many project specific insurance programs for complex projects such as Cleveland Clinic Medical Education Campus and the first true IPD project in Ohio; Akron Children’s Hospital.

She is a Founding Board member of COGENCE Alliance.
