As the third generation in my family to work with Allstate, I am fortunate to have exceptional role models who showed me the value that insurance provides in challenging situations as well as the importance of always acting with integrity.


I got my own start in the insurance business when I worked at my father's agency as a student at West Morris High School. After graduating from the University of Scranton, I volunteered in Brooklyn and also worked as a high school administrator in Scranton for several years before joining my father in his Long Valley agency in 2003. Knowing the relationships that he had built with customers over the years and how he helped them through tough times while also building friendships, coming home to work with my father in Long Valley made perfect sense. In 2008, I purchased the agency from my father and gave him the opportunity to begin his much-deserved retirement.


I am proud to call Morris County home. From Schooley’s Mountain Park to Patriot’s Path, this is such a beautiful area with wonderful people. New Jersey is a great place for my wife and me to raise our young son, and we love spending time together on the beaches, golf courses, and ski slopes right here in the Garden State. I stay active in the community as a member of the Long Valley Village Association, and I’m a proud supporter of the West Morris Central athletic teams. I am honored to give back to the community that has given me so much through sponsorships including the Washington Township Historical Society, the Action for Distraction Run/Walk (to benefit the Goryeb Children's Hospital), Alex's Lemonade Stand and more.


With the Short Family Agency, you’ll experience the personalized service that comes with a family-run business. Whether you need auto, home, and life insurance or are looking to start saving for college or retirement, my team and are I here to help you choose what works best in your life. We look forward to getting to know you and hope you’ll stop by today. We are right next to the Sunoco gas station on East Mill Road!

Products we offer:

  • Auto Insurance in Long Valley

    Close Auto insurance modal

    Helps protect you and your vehicle if you’re involved in a car accident. At a minimum, you’ll likely need bodily injury liability and property damage liability to meet state auto insurance coverage requirements and help protect your finances if you cause an accident that injures another driver or damages their property.

    We also offer uninsured motorist coverage to help with your expenses if you’re hit by a driver without insurance. If you’re looking for coverage to help protect your vehicle, you might want to consider collision coverage and comprehensive coverage, which help pay repair costs if your car is damaged in a covered loss. And, optional coverages, like new car replacement coverage or loan/lease gap coverage help protect your investment in a brand-new car.

    I can help you choose a combination of coverages that fulfill state requirements and meet your needs. Give me a call to get a car insurance quote today!

    Close Business insurance modal

    Allstate Business Insurance protects your business in ways other insurance might not. A business owners policy (BOP) usually includes three common types of coverage to help protect you and your small business: property coverage, general liability coverage and business interruption coverage. In addition to these basic coverages, the Allstate Business Owners Policy can be customized with additional protection to help cover more aspects of your business.

    I can help you tailor a policy to fit your small business’s needs. As a small business owner myself, I understand how important it is to protect what you’ve worked so hard to build.

    Call me for a free review of your current business policy and to learn more about insurance solutions to help protect you, your business and your employees.

If you injure someone else or damage their property while driving your ATV, liability coverage helps pay the other person’s medical or repair bills.

    If your ATV is damaged in a crash, collision coverage may help. Collision coverage for your ATV helps pay for repairs if you hit another object, such as a fence or a tree. Finally, you may want to consider comprehensive coverage for your ATV in case it’s stolen, vandalized or damaged by hail or fire.

Renters and Water Damage

If a pipe bursts in the home you're renting, your personal property may suffer the consequences. But a renters insurance policy may help protect you from losses to personal property in incidences such as this — and give you the peace of mind that comes with knowing safeguards are in place if things get soggy.
