Welcome to March! 🌷 As we transition into a new month, it's a great time to review your car insurance coverage. 🚗 Our dedicated team is here to assist you in finding the right car insurance policy that fits your needs and budget. 💰 Contact us today to ensure you have the protection you deserve on the road ahead. 🛣️

Whatcom County is home—I grew up right here, and am honored to be able to help my neighbors protect what and who they love. I became a State Farm agent in 2011 because I believe the right coverage makes a real difference at claim-time, and it’s my goal every day to serve my community with plans that fit their needs. I work with people from Ferndale, Blaine, Birch Bay, Lynden, Custer and the greater Bellingham area!

I’ve been part of the State Farm family for over 24 years. I got my start supporting another agent as a team member, which gave me a strong foundation in open communication and customer service. I also spent five years as an agency field professional, working with agency owners' training and development. I bring all that experience to the office to benefit my customers every day. They know they can count on me to be there for them and to truly care about their lives. My amazing team of friendly insurance professionals is always available to answer questions and offer support, and we take pride in remarkable customer service always.

I’m passionate about supporting my neighbors and my community however I can. I am a proud member of Ferndale Kiwanis and the Ferndale Chamber of Commerce. We give back to the Ferndale Food Bank, Ferndale Youth Sports and the Ferndale Schools Foundation. We've also never missed the Boys and Girls Club annual breakfast! Outside the office, you can usually find me running—I’ve done three marathons, and am usually training for something! I also love spending time with my husband and daughter playing games enjoying the great outdoors!

From auto insurance, home insurance, property insurance and life insurance to business insurance, health insurance and financial services, we are here to help. My office is always a friendly, welcoming place (for humans and pets!), whether you’ve worked with us for years or are just looking for some fresh coffee and a free quote! Give me a call or stop by today.
