The Neighborhood Agency opened its doors on Dec. 1, 2014, but my career with Allstate started in 1979. I worked part-time for a local agency while I studied at Eastern Michigan University, and it was a great opportunity for me to get involved in the community. With the help of local police and fire departments, I worked to establish safety and educational programs that still run today. My experience with these programs helped as I launched my career and three Bowker agencies, and I’m proud that they still exist today and are supported by the Allstate Foundation.
My husband and I raised our family nearby, and I’m now thrilled to have all three of my kids working with me in the Bowker agencies. We feel very connected to the people in Plymouth and try to give back as often as possible. Our team participates in the Plymouth Chamber of Commerce and is committed to helping educate local families on safe teen driving and fire safety. We’re proud to support the annual Pumpkin Palooza, and you’ll also see us at the Plymouth Ice Festival each year.
At the Neighborhood Agency, you will get the personal touch of a family-run business — especially since my son, Jason, manages this location! From home and auto insurance to college savings, life insurance and preparing for retirement, we can help you protect what is most important to you. Please call or stop by our office today — we’re tucked into the neighborhood just east of downtown. We look forward to working with you!

Helping people is at the core of what we do, which is why we’re happy to support Cornerstone Education Group through lending our time to back their cause. Because of our volunteerism, The Allstate Foundation provided Cornerstone Education Group with a $1,000 grant to aid its efforts to ensure students succeed by giving them the tools to prepare them for career and college so they can lead fulfilling lives. Our team recognizes the challenges facing people in and around the Royal Oak area, and we’re glad to be among many Allstate volunteers across the country caring for their communities by supporting important local causes.
College Football Fun at University of Michigan
I had a great time at the University of Michigan game on September 8. Before the game, fans visited the Allstate booth. I enjoyed meeting those who stopped by to share their thoughts on the game and ask insurance-related questions. Football season is Mayhem, and I’m excited to be part of it!
Allstate Foundation Helping Hands Grant for Cornerstone Schools
Cornerstone Schools received a $1,000 Allstate Foundation Helping Hands grant in honor of our team’s volunteer efforts.
