• Welcome to October!

  Fall is one of my favorite times of year! Football games, changing leaves, cooler evenings, and all the activities that make this season special. It's also a great time to check in and make sure your insurance and financial future is keeping up with life.

  At our State Farm office, we do a lot more than just insure cars and homes. My team and I enjoy getting to know our customers, understanding what's important to them, and helping them make informed decisions about protecting their families, their homes, and their financial future.

  Whether you're buying a new home, adding a teenage driver, looking toward your future, or just wondering if your current coverage still makes sense, we're here to help. We offer Auto, Homeowners, Renters, Life, and Business Insurance, along with opportunities to discuss retirement and financial preparedness.

  We proudly serve customers throughout Nebraska and Iowa, and we believe insurance should be about more than just a policy and it's cost. It should be about having someone you know to turn to when you have questions or when life throws you a curveball.

  Give us a call, send us a text, or stop by the office. We'd love the opportunity to visit with you!

  A Little About Me

  I've been with State Farm since 1992 and have had the opportunity to experience this business from several different sides. I started as a Commercial Underwriter, later became a Commercial Service Supervisor, and in 2002 took the leap into agency. More than 30 years later, I can still say I genuinely love what I do!

  My background has given me a pretty unique perspective, I understand the underwriting side, the service side, and most importantly, what it means to be the person customers count on when something goes wrong. I believe in educating people, explaining their options, and helping them make decisions that are right for their individual circumstances.

  I graduated from Northeastern State University in Tahlequah, Oklahoma, with a bachelor's degree what feels like FOREVER ago! Along the way, I've earned my Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter (CPCU) and Retirement Income Certified Professional (RICP) designations. I've also been fortunate to qualify for State Farm's Ambassador Travel and Legion of Honor recognition numerous times.

  I've enjoyed being involved in our community, including serving on the Chamber of Commerce Board and as Chairman of the Cultural Awareness Taskforce.

  Outside the office, I've been married to the love of my life since 1991. We have two incredible children and five wonderful grandchildren — three grandsons and two granddaughters — who make life even better!

  I love oil painting, sewing, and enjoy just about any opportunity to spend time in the woods. I also keep trying to learn Spanish, although I'm pretty sure my Spanish-speaking friends would tell you I have a LONG way to go!

  I'm incredibly grateful for my family, my team, our customers, and the career I've been blessed with. I thank God daily for the opportunity to do something I truly enjoy while helping people along the way.
