Welcome to Our Agency

I began my career with State Farm in 1993 as a Commercial Lines Underwriter, and in 1999, I opened my own agency right here in Fort Mill, SC. For more than two decades, I’ve had the privilege of serving families and businesses throughout Fort Mill, Tega Cay, Lake Wylie, Pineville, South Charlotte, Indian Land, Rock Hill, Clover, Newport, and York County. Our office is licensed in South Carolina and North Carolina, and we’re proud to assist customers in English and other languages so we can better support the diverse community we serve. At our agency, we help customers with a broad range of insurance and financial products, including Auto insurance, Homeowners insurance, Renters insurance, Life insurance, and Business insurance, along with additional services designed to support different stages of life and business ownership. Whether you’re protecting your home, preparing for a new driver in the family, or looking ahead to long‐term goals, our conversations focus on understanding what matters most to you. What sets our agency apart is the time we take to get to know the people we serve. I believe insurance works when it’s personal—when we understand your family, your work, and what you’re working toward. That approach has led to long‐standing relationships, with many customers and account holders choosing to stay with us for more than 27 years. I’m incredibly grateful for the loyalty, conversations, and friendships that have grown from those relationships. A little about me personally: my parents moved to the United States when I was very young, and I’ve lived in New York City and Jacksonville, Florida before making Fort Mill, SC home. I’m a graduate of the University of South Carolina’s Darla Moore School of Business, where I earned a degree in Finance and Risk Management. I’m married and have two daughters who attend Clemson University. Family plays a big role in my life, and when I’m not in the office, I enjoy supporting my daughters’ activities, playing board games and cards, and volunteering together at local schools and the food pantry. Community involvement is a meaningful part of what we do. Giving back and staying connected locally has always been important to me, and our agency enjoys being actively involved right here in Fort Mill and the surrounding areas. We truly appreciate the long‐term relationships we’ve built over the years and are always happy to welcome new customers. If you’d like to review your current insurance or financial needs, I invite you to reach out, call, or stop by our Fort Mill, SC office—I’d be glad to connect with you.
