Born and raised in Illinois, I now live in Moro, just 10 miles from my Godfrey Allstate agency. I graduated from Southern Illinois University at Edwardsville with a bachelor’s degree in business administration specializing in marketing.
I began working for Allstate as an agent in 1997. I would describe our agency environment as very inviting, warm and friendly. We treat customers like family and good service means everything to us. I am very proud to represent Allstate, a company that cares about people as much as I do. I enjoy explaining Allstate’s innovative products to customers so that they can choose coverages that best fit their specific needs.
My son, Zach, and I are avid baseball fans. We especially enjoy rooting for the Saint Louis Cardinals and are season ticket holders. Animals have always had a special place in my heart. I have two Labrador Retrievers, Ben and Drake, that I refer to as “my boys.” I support the 5A’s Humane Society, and I donate to many local organizations each year. I believe in giving back to my community and my neighbors because I truly love the environment we have worked hard to keep.
