🚗 Cooler weather and busy schedules are here. Take a few minutes this month to check in on your auto, home and other insurance needs. As we head into fall, our team is here to help you understand your coverage and answer any questions you may have.

The reason I became a State Farm agent is simple: To help prepare people for the unexpected and make preparing for the future feel simple. Life’s busy and sometimes uncertain, which is why my team and I are dedicated to working with customers to protect what matters most and plan for the future.

My team takes pride in providing great customer service, whether it’s answering a question, taking a payment, or getting car insurance or home insurance. That customer-first focus is also front and center for more personal, in-depth conversations about life, saving for college, and retirement. There’s confidence that comes with having a plan in place, and we’re here to help you every step of the way.

After spending a decade with State Farm in other roles, I opened my first office as a State Farm agent in Parkville, Maryland, in 2011. As business expanded, I wanted to create a positive impact in Baltimore where I grew up, so in 2016 I opened an additional location in Fells Point — allowing for a wider local team presence in the communities we already served.

And, while my team is equipped to help you locally, we’re also pros at working with customers virtually, whether you’re looking for insurance in Baltimore City or further away in other parts of Maryland and beyond.

On a more personal note, I’m always refining and refreshing my work/life balance. It’s the non-business aspects of our lives that help to define us as people — it keeps me grounded and helps me relate to others, as customers and as humans. So, even though my day-to-day is kept busy running both offices, I still make time for other things I love, which include cooking, frequenting local restaurants, traveling, spending time with family and friends, and taking care of my corgi (Lucy).

Getting to know you personally is important to us, too. It’s how we help make sure you have a plan in place that allows you to do the things you love, while also living life confidently. We also believe it’s important that you get to know us as people, not just order-takers. My team is dynamic, interesting, friendly and empathetic. They value helping others just as much as I do!
