Welcome to my digital storefront. Here's a bit about me. I've been a Knoxville resident since 1989, when I moved here from my hometown of Kingston TN to attend the University of Tennessee. I'm a proud Vols fan who's attended UT football and basketball games since the mid 80's. Sports has been a large part of my life since I was young; whether participating or watching. Fortunately, my love of sports was passed onto my kids. My son, who studies chemical engineering at Virginia Tech, was instrumental in helping his high school cross country and soccer teams each win the State Championship his senior year. It's a amazing feat that he'll be able to tell his kids about some day, plus be able to back it up by showing them his championship rings. My daughter, who attends Auburn University and is studying exercise science, was a distance runner in high school, competing in both cross country and track. She and her cross-country teammates won State her senior year, so like her brother, she has the distinguished title of being on a state championship team. I couldn't be prouder of their dedication and hard work in both academics and athletics. For myself, I've found that hiking, camping, and kayaking are my passions these days more than playing sports. With the Great Smoky Mountains just 45 minutes from my home, it's easy to hit the trails and hike to amazing waterfall, camp at Elkmont or Cade's Cove, or stand atop Mt Leconte to take in God's creation. If you ever have an inkling to make the trek up to Leconte, just do it. You'll be glad you did! It's truly amazing up there. The sunset photo above is one I took from Mt Leconte a few years ago. If you're ever in my office, you'll see a print of that photo on my wall.
At my agency, my team and I value our customers and give them the same attention as we would our own family. My team and I have a combined 54 years insurance experience and I'm proud to say I celebrated my 26th year with State Farm in September of 2023. We are conveniently located by Sams, Walmart and the new Amazon facility, near the intersection of Millertown Pike and I-640. Feel free to stop in for a cup of coffee or bottle of spring water and we'll discuss your policies if already a State Farm customer or run some quotes if you're not yet with State Farm. Consultations and quotes are free, so you have nothing to lose and I bet you'll learn somethings about insurance that you never knew.
