• Did you know State Farm offers Life Insurance? During Life Insurance awareness (September) month, it’s so 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.

It all started in 2001! Fresh out of Michigan State (Go Green....wait for it.....Go White), I went into the supply chain management world. It was at this time I just couldn't help but notice how lots of people just seemed to lack Joy in their life; I began to do some soul searching on how I could make a difference in people's lives; I wanted to bring Joy back to people or at least create a culture where Joy abounds! With this as my mission my plan was to open up a coffee shop and in walks my own State Farm Agent...He said "Scott, you have to be a State Farm Agent!" In a nutshell, I looked into it and immediately fell in love with the idea of serving people, helping people, spreading joy with people, meeting people, and doing whatever I could to bless my community through service! I jumped in with everything I had and I've loved every minute of it!! Thank you for reading this and now here is just a little bit more of where I've been and what I have been up to besides offering auto insurance, life insurance, home insurance, renters insurance and all financial services to the local community!

I had a 2 year old and a 6 month old when it all started and now I have 2 college grads, 1 just beginning and 3 more still at home! Yep, being a dad is one of the greatest blessings I'll ever be able to experience on this earth! And, of course, my wife of 25 years is also quite special:)
