After a two decade career in higher education, first as a Cuesta College Counselor and then their Dean of Student Services, I decided to expand on my legacy of helping people and investing in my community by becoming a State Farm Agent. I love helping customers protect their physical & financial assets with auto insurance, homeowners insurance, life insurance, and health insurance.  I seek to develop relationships with my customers and to partner with them as they make long lasting insurance and financial decisions for their families.  I am a second-generation State Farm Agent steeped in the values, history, and reputation of the company I represent. State Farm’s emphasis on serving the community like a good neighbor aligns closely with my own personal values. I am a Cal Poly SLO grad and hold a Bachelor of Arts in History and a Master of Arts in Education.  I was born and raised in California and proud to call San Luis Obispo home since 1995.  Together with my partner, I’m raising 5 kids and a yellow lab.  In my free time I love baseball, live music, and camping with friends.
