October 1, 1990 is a memorable day. It’s the day I became a State Farm Agent and October 1, 1994 is the day I opened my State Farm Insurance Agency in Saint Ignace Michigan, just a little over 30 years ago and they have been wonderful years. I am proud to help the people I serve in the Eastern Upper Peninsula and Northern Lower Peninsula consisting of Mackinac, Chippewa, Luce, Emmet, and Cheboygan Counties including Mackinac Island. My office is located in Historic Downtown Saint Ignace.

Before becoming a State Farm Agent I was a Commercial Loan Officer for a large Financial Institution. This experience in providing loans to business fueled my interest in owning and operating my own Insurance Agency. I love meeting people and helping them make their insurance premiums work hard for them and their families.

As a graduate of Northern Michigan University, I love working with students on understanding the ins and outs of Auto, Renters and Life insurance. As they prepare to move on to their careers, I am here to be a guide. I hold other various certificates in financial services industry which includes a Loan Originator License to originate loans with our State farm alliance partner Quicken Loans. Its prime time to look at getting a savings on refinancing AND historically low auto insurance premium options too!

Sports have been a key part of my life and I just retired as a football & basketball referee of more than 20 years. My hobbies now consist of playing golf in the summer, hiking in the spring and fall and skiing in the winter. What I enjoy the most is being able to do these activities with my wife, children and grandchildren.

Over the years I have been a member of various local civic organizations. Presently I serve as a board member to the Mackinac Straits Area Health Board. I know the importance of health insurance and how important it is in these crazy times.

I am also a lifetime Yooper. Being born in the beautiful town of L’Anse Michigan and migrating with my family as I worked through college and my career. I enjoy helping people who are moving to the Upper Peninsula so that they can experience the beauty and joy of the area with secure thoughts about their protection.

My team and I pride ourselves on providing a quality customer service experience and our goal is to help you make smart choices with your insurance and financial service options so that your hard earned dollars work hard for you.
