About Our Agency:
I opened my agency in 1996, and since then, we’ve built a small but mighty team of three dedicated professionals. My journey with State Farm began back in 1988, but my career started in a completely different field — as a pilot — and I still fly as a private pilot today. I also played Division III basketball and was inducted into the Hall of Fame at Millikin University. Outside of work, I’m an adrenaline enthusiast who loves cycling, staying active, and spending quality time with my grandchildren. My wife used to work alongside me in the agency, which makes our business truly feel like a family endeavor.
Community is at the heart of what we do. I’m an active member of the Carmi Kiwanis Club and the Carmi Chamber of Commerce, and I stay involved locally by sponsoring events and coaching high school girls’ basketball. Giving back and staying connected to the people we serve is a core part of our mission.
We offer a flexible schedule — something our team members, especially parents, really value — along with paid time off and a $250 clothing allowance. Above all, we’re looking for someone with energy, positivity, and a people-first mindset. Insurance skills can be taught, but a go-getter attitude, self-motivation, and a genuine love for helping others are what make someone thrive here.
If you’re looking for a career where your personality, initiative, and people skills can truly shine, this could be the perfect place for you.
