My dad always told me, “If you work hard, you can accomplish anything.” I try to emulate his kindness and generosity. I strive to ensure families don’t go hungry through my work with the Prism Food Shelves, Feed My Starving Children and Second Harvest. I also am active in my church and church choir at Mount Olivet Lutheran Church of Plymouth.
My wife, Gail, and I live just five minutes west of Golden Valley, Minnesota, with our dog and two cats. We have two college-age daughters, Jenna and Courtney. I like living close to downtown Minneapolis because of its theaters, museums, golf courses and sports teams. For fun, I like hitting the links, bowling, camping, reading, exercising and brewing my own beer. I’m also working on my bucket list. A few years ago, I drove a racecar for the first time. Next up: visiting England, Ireland and Norway.
With 30 years of experience in insurance under my belt, I’m confident in my ability to answer customers’ questions. When I opened my agency in 2005, I had already spent nearly 20 years working as a claims adjuster and claims manager. I like knowing I can help customers make good decisions and get a good value on insurance policies that help them protect themselves from the risks they face.
