I am a North Carolina native: I was born and raised in Davidson, educated in Durham at Duke University and have lived in Mooresville, where I operate my Allstate agency, since 1983. Mooresville is just a three-hour drive to the coast and a two-hour drive to the mountains. It’s a wonderful place to live and to work.
When I’m not working, I volunteer for the U.S. Coast Guard, facilitating classes on boating safety as a public education officer. I also facilitate classes for the National Alliance on Mental Illness, an advocacy group for families with mentally ill family members. I also enjoy spending time with my family. I’m a devoted husband, a proud father of three grown sons and a grandfather. My wife and I love to travel. We take annual trips to North Carolina’s coastal beaches.
I began my career with Allstate as an insurance underwriter in 1976 and became an agent in 1983. I believe that a good agent is an invaluable resource to customers, and I appreciate the opportunity to serve customers as they make decisions that help protect what matters most: their family, home, car and boat.
I also believe in continuity of service. Two of my three agents have worked alongside me since 1990, and the third, one of my three sons, joined the agency in 2013. We provide a wide range of insurance products and are dedicated to building lasting relationships with customers. Stop by and see us! We look forward to getting to know you.
