About our agency

Our agency opened in 2012 and is a strong team of seven who work closely together to serve our customers and community. Before becoming a State Farm agent, I worked in outside industrial sales, and with my husband having over 28 years of experience with State Farm, insurance has been a big part of our lives.

I’m a proud mother of five children, all of whom attended local colleges. Family and community are incredibly important to me, and that carries into how I run the office. We are very active in the community - supporting local high schools, staying engaged on social media, and serving in leadership roles such as President of the Board of Directors for St. Nicholas Charity and involvement with the Home Builders Association.

For our team, we offer vacation, sick days, personal days, and paid holidays, along with flexible scheduling options, a 401(k), and licensing paid up front to support your growth.

Our office culture is everything to us. We operate as a true team—supporting each other, communicating openly, and maintaining a positive, drama-free environment. We’re looking for someone who is outgoing, personable, and brings a growth mindset—someone who values teamwork and wants to be part of a supportive, family-like office.
