Office Hours

As a State Farm Insurance agent serving Loves Park, Rockford, and communities throughout Illinois and Wisconsin, I’m passionate about helping my Good Neighbors protect what matters most. Our office is here to help customers prepare for today and plan confidently for tomorrow. Whether you have questions about your insurance or are simply looking for a local team you can count on, we’re ready to help.

As a two-time cancer survivor, I understand firsthand how quickly life can change and how important it can be to prepare for the unexpected. That experience has shaped the way I approach helping customers and families understand their insurance options. If you have questions about Life Insurance or want to review your current coverage, my team and I would be happy to help you explore options based on your needs. ❤️

We’re about more than Auto and Home Insurance. Our team can help with a variety of insurance needs, including Life, Renters, Condo, Personal Articles, Business, and other available coverage options. We believe insurance conversations should be easy to understand so you can make informed decisions about protecting the people and things that matter to you.

🍂 Fall is here in Northern Illinois! Cooler temperatures, colorful leaves, football weekends, and time on the road make this a great season to check in on your insurance needs. Whether you’re preparing your home for colder weather, taking a fall road trip 🚗, moving into a new place, or simply checking that your current coverage still fits your needs, our team is here to answer your questions.

If you’re buying a new or used vehicle, purchasing a home 🏡, or renting your first apartment, let’s talk. We can help you explore Auto, Homeowners, Renters, Condo, and Personal Articles Insurance options and answer questions along the way.

If you see me out in the community, be sure to say hello! 👋 I’m involved with the Chamber of Commerce as a Board Member, the Neighborhoods in the Parks Committee, the Rockford Apartment Association as a Board Member, and other local organizations. Our office proudly serves Loves Park, Rockford, Roscoe, Belvidere, Machesney Park, Poplar Grove, Argyle, Stillman Valley, and communities throughout Winnebago County.

As a local small business owner, I also understand the work that goes into building something of your own. Our team is available to discuss Business Insurance options, including Business Owners Policies, Workers’ Compensation, and Commercial Auto Insurance, and help you explore coverage for your business.

Our office can also help answer questions about additional insurance and financial services options available through State Farm. If you’re unsure where to start, just ask. We’re happy to have a conversation about your goals and needs.
