Local Allstate Agency: Meet Tunnell Insurance Agency Inc

Meet John Tunnell, the proud owner of Tunnell Insurance Agency Inc., a seasoned professional who entered the insurance industry in 2005. Though it may sound cliché, Chicago truly resonates with John – from its diverse neighborhoods to its sprawling parks and the spirited sports culture with the Cubs, Blackhawks, and Bulls. Originally from Indiana, John made Chicago his home in 2002, establishing his Allstate Agency in 2007. In 2017, he relocated the agency to Park Ridge, transforming it into a mega agency with two locations.

Living in close proximity to his office allows John to fully embrace the offerings of Park Ridge, including cherished moments at Jaycee Park with his children. His agency prides itself on providing services in both English and Spanish, catering to the wonderfully diverse community. John finds immense satisfaction in helping customers make decisions that safeguard their families, homes, cars, and more. Focusing on Auto insurance, Home insurance, Condo insurance, Life insurance, and Retirement insurance, the agency is also deeply committed to initiatives promoting distracted driving awareness, especially among teenagers.

Beyond insurance, John's passion lies in mentoring and coaching his team, deriving joy from their success. Being an Allstate agent isn't just a profession for John; it's an avenue to give back to the community. Chicago's vibrant culture has left an indelible mark on him, shaping his involvement with organizations like Compass to Care, Friends of the Parks, and the Park Ridge Chamber of Commerce. His commitment to community extends to coaching various sports and serving on the board of Park Ridge Baseball and Softball.

An intriguing fact about John is that he won the 7th-grade National Chess Tournament in 1988. Outside of work, he enjoys traveling and attending sports games with his family – wife Mary Ann, son Alex, and daughter Caroline. Over the years, he has contributed significantly to the community, serving as an election official for the Park Board Commission of Park Ridge Park District.
