Who We Are

AO Heritage was founded three years ago in Tampa, Florida by Torian Fields and Ashley Rust with a bold and community-centered vision: to empower individuals to achieve financial independence, professional excellence, and personal growth through innovative insurance solutions and transformational leadership development.

From day one, Torian and Ashley built AO Heritage on the principles of authentic connection, servant leadership, and relentless support for every person who joins the journey. What started as a passionate mission to redefine what an insurance agency could be has grown into a dynamic community of agents, clients, and leaders unified by shared purpose — not just numbers.

At AO Heritage, we believe in:

• Serving first — putting people’s goals, well-being, and futures ahead of sales

• Building legacies — helping clients protect what matters most and agents build meaningful careers

• Holistic growth — investing in personal development, professional training, and community impact

Over the past three years, AO Heritage has:

• Expanded its reach across Florida and beyond

• Developed a collaborative culture where mentorship and teamwork thrive

• Helped hundreds of families secure their financial foundations

• Guided emerging leaders to excel in business and life

Where we’re headed

As we look forward, AO Heritage is on a clear trajectory of strategic growth and greater impact:

• Scaling our team with mission-aligned agents who lead with integrity and purpose

• Innovating our service offerings to meet the evolving financial needs of families and small businesses

• Strengthening community partnerships that elevate financial literacy and opportunity

• Cultivating leadership excellence through advanced training, coaching, and real-world experience

• Expanding our footprint nationally, while staying rooted in the culture of support and family that defines us

AO Heritage isn’t just an agency — it’s a movement. A place where people find direction, purpose, and the tools they need to build the life they envision. With Torian Fields and Ashley Rust at the helm, our mission is clear: to elevate lives, one relationship at a time, and shape a legacy that lasts generations.
