As the days grow longer in April, people naturally spend less time indoors and more time engaging with their community. While this shift is refreshing, it also means homes may be unattended more often. Ensuring your home is properly secured during these times can help prevent unnecessary issues.

I was born and raised in North Saint Paul but spent summers at our cabin in Knife River and Webster. I am second oldest of five children. I have grown up in a State Farm family, with my dad, uncles, and cousin all working for State Farm. I have always known that I wanted to one day own my own business. Through hard work and dedication, I was blessed with an opportunity to do just that, with the leading company in the industry. Working at State Farm also led me to meeting my wife Kaitlyn, and I couldn’t be more grateful. We have always wanted to raise a family in a small town. Perham, MN is the perfect fit and we couldn’t be happier!

After graduating college with a bachelor’s degree in business administration I began my career with State Farm. I worked for one of the most recognized agents in the state for over five years. Our office is located in Perham on Main Street, and we are happy to schedule appointments at your home and business too. We help people all over that state of Minnesota and North Dakota with their car insurance as well as insuring their home. Whether you're renting and need Renters insurance, own a condo and need Condo insurance or own a home and need Homeowners insurance we are here to help you cover what is important to you.

We take the time to talk to everyone about the importance of Life insurance to protect those you value most. Working with other small business owners as a member of the Perham Area Chamber of Commerce and serving as the Board Vice President, I find it rewarding to sit down with business owners for their Business insurance and outline their needs. I love working within the community and giving back, being a member of the Perham Rotary Club as well as a State Farm Agent allows me to do just that. We look forward to working with those who currently call Lakes Country home or are relocating to the Perham, MN, Frazee, MN, New York Mills, MN, Wadena, MN and Detroit Lakes, MN area!
