Merle Silver
Co-Founder and COO

Mr. Silver brings an extensive commercial, institutional sales, sales leadership and business operational management background to Critica PPE.
His professional experience includes over 30 years successfully managing a multi-line insurance agency located in Miami Florida. While with that company, Mr. Silver oversaw the launch and development of an insurance agency that specialized in the highly competitive employee benefits, pensions, workers’ compensation, marine, cargo and aviation markets. In his time there, Mr. Silver successfully expanded the business from a small local agency to one with a client base that stretches across the nation.
Mr. Silver is extremely dedicated to the insurance industry and its future. As part of that passion, he has dedicated a considerable amount of his time to teaching, first as an Adjunct Faculty Member at Miami Dade College, where he taught pre-licensing courses for current-year insurance agent licensing as well as courses to fulfill the continuing education requirements for existing agents. He currently teaches insurance pre-licensing classes at Gold Coast Professional Schools.
