I was born at Swedish Hospital in Minneapolis and remember accompanying my dad to his sales office in the Warehouse District downtown while growing up. I got my start in insurance as a claims adjuster based out of Arden Hills in 1986 and became an Allstate agent in 1987. I opened our Minneapolis office in 2009. I chose to open my third agency in Minneapolis because it’s a large, diverse area with a tremendous amount of opportunity and a lot of hometown pride.
I became an Allstate representative because I have a passion for helping customers find the coverage they need to protect what matters most. Having come from insurance claims, I knew I wanted to have a hand in helping people prepare for the unexpected, and not just after the fact. Today, our agencies are staffed with a team of agents who each bring unique skill sets to the table, such as being fluent in Spanish and English.
Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my wife, Linda, our three daughters, Rachael, Amy and Sarah, and our three dogs, Maggie, Royce and Riley. You could say we have a full house! We're avid sports fans and enjoy attending Minnesota Vikings football games and Minnesota Twins baseball games. I graduated from the University of Minnesota Twin Cities and enjoy taking a stroll through the downtown campus, which is close to my Minneapolis office. In my spare time, I'm an avid soccer player and play on two different teams year-round. I enjoy photography and traveling and hope to visit new, exciting places in the future!
