I am proud to be a State Farm Insurance Agent since 1990 and was born, raised, and reside in Ontario. This is where I met my wife, State Farm agent Michelle Gates, and we raised our 2 sons.

I served in the 179th Ohio Air National Guard 1983-1991, past president of Ontario Youth Sports and Ontario Athletics Booster Club, charter member of the Ontario Growth Association, member of Ontario Lions Club, board member for Mansfield Memorial Park, and enjoy supporting local schools and student programs/athletes.

As a graduate of The Ohio State University with a degree in transportation and logistics, I have also continued my insurance education earning my CLU (Chartered Life Underwriter), ChFC , and CASL (Chartered Advisor for Senior Living) designations from the American College.

I am fortunate to work with a great team with over 55 years of experience. They have a passion for helping people with their insurance and financial needs. If you are looking for a free insurance quote, please consider giving us a call or stopping in to see us. We will even have a bag of chocolate chip cookies for you.

Thank you for allowing us to serve this great community!
