About me

Happy Halloween! Your insurance shouldn't be spooky!

Helping families and businesses save money on insurance is my passion. As your local State Farm Insurance agent, I proudly provide auto insurance, homeowners insurance, renters insurance, and life insurance with programs to fit your needs. I'm proud to help individuals and families relocating to Ridgeland, Madison, Flowood, Brandon, Clinton, Flora, and Jackson with personalized insurance policies designed to protect your home, vehicles, and family.

I began my career in 1985 as a claim adjuster and was honored to be chosen to lead this agency in 2009. Since then, I have remained deeply involved in our community, serving as President of the Ridgeland Chamber of Commerce, Chairman of the Board for the Salvation Army of Jackson, and Vice President of the LSU Alumni Association of Jackson. I have also served on the Board of Directors for the Better Business Bureau of Mississippi, and remain active in the Rotary International, the Knights of Columbus, and Business Networking International.

My agency is proud to be an accredited member of the Better Business Bureau of Mississippi and a past recipient of the The Clarion-Ledger “Top Insurance Agency” award. I have also won numerous awards with State Farm, including the Legion of Honor, SVP Leadership, Champions Circle, and Ambassador Travel awards. Additionally, I hold several professional designations, including CPCU and AIS. If you are searching for a trusted local insurance agent for auto, home, renters, or life insurance in Ridgeland, Madison, and the greater Jackson area, my team and I are ready to help you find the right coverage with confidence.
