My journey with State Farm began long before I became an agent—ever since I started driving, I’ve trusted and valued the support and protection the brand offers. Experiencing firsthand how my local agent helped me navigate coverage questions, find valuable discounts, and manage claims inspired me to join the team in 2020. Now, I’m committed to providing that same dependable service to my community.

Outside of the office, my partner Alyson and I love staying active—whether it’s running along Portland’s scenic trails, biking through our vibrant neighborhoods, or enjoying the city’s fantastic farmers markets and diverse restaurants. These experiences deepen my connection to our community and fuel my passion for helping those around me.

Before becoming an insurance agent, I pursued a career as a professional musician, earning a Doctorate in jazz guitar from the University of Northern Colorado. Touring and teaching music taught me invaluable lessons about discipline, and the importance of community support—principles that I carry into my work every day. I believe insurance isn’t just about policies; it’s about building relationships and lifting each other up through life’s uncertainties.

I’m passionate about engaging with our community and educating folks on how to prepare for the unexpected. Let's work together to meet your insurance needs and secure a better future for you and your loved ones. We offer many products to serve your needs including personal & commercial auto insurance, motorcycles, trailers, campers, home, renters, condos, earthquake coverage, ring insurance, boats, pet insurance, disability (income protection), and various kinds of life insurance. Let’s connect and make sure you’re protected!
