Job Description

About our Agency:
I opened my agency in March 2024 and currently lead a team of three. Before becoming an agent with State Farm, I worked with Liberty Mutual. My experience in the insurance industry, combined with a passion for building strong customer relationships, ultimately led me to agency ownership.

I’m married with four children and have five pets, so family is a huge part of my life. I enjoy spending time with my family and building meaningful relationships with the people around me.  I stay very involved in the local community by sponsoring schools, neighborhood block parties, and other events throughout the year.

Our agency offers Aspirant Program opportunities, PTO, professional development, in-office events, and scheduling flexibility for team members who consistently meet performance goals. I’m committed to helping people grow both personally and professionally while creating an environment where they can succeed long term.

Our culture is family-oriented, relationship-driven, and supportive. We focus on building lasting relationships with customers while creating a close-knit team environment where people enjoy working together. I’m looking for motivated, dependable individuals who enjoy connecting with people, take pride in their work, and want to be part of something bigger than themselves.
