I’m proud to say I was born and raised in Port Angeles, and I'm an alumnus of Queen of Angels School and a 1998 graduate of Port Angeles High School. This is a beautiful area with great people, including my grandparents, parents and sister, who I’m lucky to have nearby. I left the area to attend Pepperdine University, and I’m thankful the Los Angeles business climate afforded me the opportunity to apply my business degree as a financial services representative with several industry leading companies. However, as anyone who has fought the busy L.A. traffic and lifestyle can appreciate, I decided to come back to Port Angeles in 2010 to work with my mom at the Allstate Agency she started in 1998. It was a great opportunity for me to continue both the great work she started and my career in insurance and financial services. I was thrilled I could purchase the agency soon after I came home, but I’m even happier that she came out of retirement to work in the agency again. We’re all still benefiting from her knowledge and hard work!
Having lived most of my life here, Port Angeles is more than where I do business. I know and love life here, and it’s important to me that I contribute to the success of individuals, help build local businesses and am an active member of the community. I’m proud to donate to the United Way of Clallam County, and I support local businesses as a member of the Chamber of Commerce as well as the Port Angeles Ambassadors. As a sports nut, I also can’t resist sponsoring local recreational teams. You’ll see the “Elwood Allstate” teams on the courts of the local men’s basketball league and the golf courses for the local merchant league. I enjoy playing on both teams, too!
It is a privilege to work in a community where I was raised and now lead an agency that is truly a family business. I am proud to help the people here choose their protection that's right for them and to be better prepared financially for whatever life may throw at them. I look forward to working with you, too — call or stop by our office next to Windermere Real Estate today!

We are proud to have assisted USO Northwest by joining 49 other Allstate agents to collect donations to help support America’s military service members and their families. Because we support the cause of the organization, we helped them to also qualify for a $50,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands in the Community grant. The grant will help them to provide support to those who need it the most including military deploying overseas and returning home, military families, wounded warriors and their families and families of the fallen. We look forward to working with USO Northwest again!
