• Did you know State Farm offers Life Insurance? During Life Insurance Awareness Month, it’s important to learn the options you have to protect your family. We pride ourselves on having a comprehensive conversation to make sure we are providing you the right policy for your budget.

I've been a State Farm agent for 19 years, and have more than 35 total years of insurance and financial services experience with State Farm. I'm proud to serve the residents of Lakeland and the surrounding areas of central, eastern and western Florida, and my agency welcomes speakers of both English and Spainish-hablamos espanol. We handle everything from homeowners and auto insurance to life insurance, business insurance and more-including financial services.

Ive served the city of Lakeland for the past 9 years with the experiences I've gained from over three decades in the business. I previously ran a State Farm agency in northern Florida, and I've also worked for the company as an adjuster and a supervisor. I've traveled all over the country for my work with State Farm, from Maine to Hawaii and dozens of places in between. But my true passion lies in helping people, and I'm thrilled to be settled here in Lakeland and working directly with customers again. I take great pride in helping people plan for the future and protect the things that matter most to them.

I'm a Florida native and a graduate of the University of Florida, so this has always been home for me, no matter how much or how far I travel. I enjoy being close to the water-my wife and I have a four-year-old daughter and we've started fishing together as a family. I've developed a real affinity for it-we're even done deep sea fishing. We also love hanging out at the beach and finding museums and other new places to explore together.

I enjoy finding ways to get involved and make a real difference in the community. These are challenging times, and it's more important than ever for us to pull together and help each other. I've been sponsoring sports teams at the local High School, supporting food pantries, and getting involved in Lakeland's First Friday events. And I'm always open to finding other ways to help out.

So, whether you're new to the Lakeland area or just exploring your options for home, auto, life, property or business insurance, you can call us for a quote. We have the knowledge and experience to help with almost anything-and we even offer mobile home insurance.
