Welcome October! 🍁🍂 There's a certain nostalgia that comes with fall, as we reminisce about childhood memories of jumping into piles of leaves or the excitement of Halloween festivities. It's a season that invites us to slow down and appreciate the simple pleasures in life, like taking long walks in colorful parks or enjoying the crackling sound of a bonfire.
Protecting what matters most starts with having someone local who can help make insurance easier to understand and be there when it counts. My connection to State Farm began while attending the University of Iowa, where I decided to pursue a career in business with a company known for helping people through life’s challenges. I spent ten years as a State Farm property claims employee, assisting people through situations such as house fires, tornadoes, hurricanes, and other unexpected events. Those experiences taught me the value of clear communication, dependable support, and being present during some of life's most important moments.
Since becoming a State Farm agent in 2016, I’ve continued that commitment by helping individuals and families throughout Sac City, Sac County, and Northwest Iowa protect what matters to them. Whether you're looking for Auto Insurance for the road ahead, Homeowners Insurance to help protect your home, Farm Insurance connected to Iowa’s agricultural heritage, or Life Insurance for the people who matter most, I enjoy helping make insurance approachable and easier to navigate.
As a CPCU and a lifelong Iowan, I’m proud to serve the area where I grew up, attended college, and built my career. I value the strong relationships and community connections that make Northwest Iowa special while embracing modern tools that help make insurance conversations more convenient. You might hear me describe myself as someone who enjoys taking the backroads and finding options when there isn’t an obvious answer. Outside the office, I enjoy running, golfing, cheering on Iowa Hawkeye athletics, and spending time with my wife, Emily, our dogs Mollie and Henry, and other family members who still live nearby. I’m also involved with local organizations and volunteer with school activities throughout the community.
Old-school relationships. Modern tools. Local experience. If you're in Sac City, Sac County, or the surrounding Northwest Iowa area, I’d be happy to connect and discuss your insurance needs.
