Self-Improvement
I have been an Allstate agent since 2016, and I have lived in the Ville Platte area my entire life. I love the friendliness and small town feel here. I like to take walks in Chicot State Park and soak in the beauty of nature. My two sons are also agents, and my oldest, Steven, actually works with me in this agency, which my late husband, Miles, opened in 2005. I have two dogs, Floyd and Max, who keep me entertained at home.
Helping to broadcast their events on KVPI radio, I am a sponsor of the Smoked Meat Festival and Ville Platte Dixie Youth Little League. Because I love to give back, I support St. Jude’s Children’s Research Hospital, Shriners Hospital for Children and the Ville Platte Police Department’s drug abuse resistance education program. On the weekends, I enjoy cooking, listening to live music, spending time with my granddaughter and going to spin class.
I became an agent to continue the business that my husband loved and took pride in. Since his passing was very sudden, I understand the importance of life insurance and getting financially ready for the future. I especially enjoy helping people to understand coverages so they can choose what is fitting for their family’s specific needs. My agency is located at the intersection of LaSalle and Chataignier Streets. Come visit us today.
