About me

🍎 Back-to-School As families prepare for a new school year, it's a great time to review your insurance coverage. Whether you have a new teen driver, a student heading to college, or changes at home, we're here to help protect what matters most.

I am a lifelong Chicago-area resident, married to my high school sweetheart and have two beautiful children. Through my years building a career, maintaining homes, guiding and coaching my kids and preparing for retirement, I have gained a sense of what matters most in life and how important it is to protect it.

I strongly believe in a proactive approach to protecting every aspect of your life and family. I have seen first-hand the benefits of being prepared when the unexpected strikes, and I'm excited to help other families protect the lives they’ve built.

We're here to help our communities by providing insurance coverage for Auto, Home, Life and Health. We are passionate about helping people with Boat and RV Insurance as well. We look forward to working with our neighbors in Portage Park, Belmont Cragin and all the rest of the Chicagoland area. With our team living in different communities around the area, we are happy to travel to meet where it's most convenient.
