ABOUT OUR AGENCY:
I opened my agency in 1994 and currently lead a team of five. Before joining State Farm, I worked in the lumber sales industry before pursuing the opportunity to own my own business. My wife and I have been married for 35 years, and we're blessed with three children and four grandchildren.
Serving the community has always been important to me. I serve as an elder at my church and sit on the boards of the local Salvation Army and the Park Ridge Crisis Pregnancy Center. I believe in giving back and making a positive impact both inside and outside the office.
Our agency offers PTO, health benefits, a 401(k), licensing reimbursement, and a strong commitment to work-life balance. We believe in supporting our team members while creating opportunities for long-term success.
Our culture is built on integrity, service, and doing the right thing. I'm looking for someone with a strong work ethic, a servant's heart, and a genuine desire to help others. If you're someone who values relationships and wants to make a difference every day, we'd love to meet you.
