ABOUT OUR AGENCY:
I opened my agency in 2018 and currently lead a close-knit team of four. Before becoming a State Farm agent, I built my career in the health and fitness industry, including experience managing a health club. I also have a strong athletic background, having played college football at both Georgia Tech and Alabama State. Those experiences helped shape the teamwork, discipline, and positive energy I bring to the agency today.

Giving back is important to me and our team. We stay active in the local community, support area food banks, and I serve on the board of a charitable organization that supports a Chicago children’s hospital.

Our agency offers health, dental, and vision insurance, licensing costs paid up front, and a strong commitment to work-life balance. We want our team members to feel supported both professionally and personally while building a rewarding career.

Our culture is tight-knit, family-oriented, and built around great attitudes and great energy. I’m looking for someone who is a genuine team player and understands the impact they can have on every person they interact with. We want someone who strives to be memorable for the right reasons - bringing positivity to the team, building meaningful relationships, and leaving customers with a lasting impression of exceptional service.
