A Plantation, Florida business custom-made for success is revved up and ready for its launch next week. Brightway, The Scialpi Agency insurance office is set to open this Monday.

Davie residents Mariano and Max Scialpi, and Bettina Rizzo are part of a family known for being enthusiastic about their hometown and the South Florida lifestyle.

From Bettina’s 30 years of experience helping families find their next home to Max’s skill sets in customer service to Mariano’s passion for restoring classic automobiles, this trio of entrepreneurs knows what it takes to work, live and play in Broward County.

“Dad’s (Mariano) love for restoring old cars is just one of the many things that have always helped show others our dedication to the work we do,” Max said. “Combined with my mom’s (Bettina) successful career in local realty and my customer-centric personality, we are excited to crank up the engine on our Brightway venture.”

A 2016 alum of Cypress Bay High School in Weston (FL), Max and his family moved to the Sunshine State from Connecticut when he was 14.
