October Community Involvement

October is Fire Prevention & Safety Awareness Month- we will be partnering with the Travelers Rest Fire Department and providing Fire Safety Kits that they can distribute to kids in the community to help educate them on the importance of safe practices and responsibility around fires.

Fall Updates

Fall is finally here, a time that brings cooler temperatures, a host of outdoor activities and holidays that we hope will continue to bring friends and family closer together. This is a great time to review and start getting a plan in place for 2024. Planning now can add a tremendous amount of value to your future, so let us find a way to add some value to your insurance protection! Give us a call and let's have a conversation about making sure the protection you have is right for you.

Through the end of the year, we are focusing on Life Insurance Awareness and ensuring your loved ones, as well as your assets, income and goals are protected. We are always available to assist with your Auto and Fire needs, helping build your Personal Price Plan to ensure you have the coverage that is needed to protect your household.

2023 Updates:

We are excited to continue into our 4th year here in Travelers Rest! As a team, we have loved being able to help this community and other surrounding areas. We look to continue doing that in 2023 and meeting more of you!

Whether you are new to this area or already a resident, there is no better team to work with! We can help you transition easily and are here to assist in any way we can. We are very familiar with Travelers Rest & the Upstate as a whole. Aside from insurance and financial products, we can assist with recommendations on where to grab a bite to eat, some local events coming up, and everything in between.

We look forward to meeting you and please let us know how we can help! We are here to put together a plan based on you, or your families specific needs. All households are not the same and we want to work together to ensure you, your income and your assets are always protected. Let us be there to make that bad day a little bit easier. We will always strive is to provide remarkable service and be who you expect State Farm to be, a Good Neighbor!

About Me:

I grew up here in Travelers Rest. I have lived in the Travelers Rest area all my life and I could not imagine living in a better place. The growth of this area has drawn interest from people from all over the country, and after one day here it is not hard to see why. I feel such gratitude to be able to serve an area that I am from and feel so passionately about. My parents, from an early age, taught me the importance of strong work ethic and how important it is to serve my community. My wife, Jaimie and I are both graduates of Clemson University and have great pride in being a part of that amazing university. We have one little girl, Emilia, who was born in December of 2020.

Today, as your State Farm Agent, I oversee an amazing team to bring you the right insurance coverage that fits your needs with products from auto, home, renters, life and business insurance. No matter how complex your needs are, my team and I keep one simple goal in mind: to help you get the coverage you need, with the personal service you'd expect from any hometown company. At my agency, we go beyond products to relationships. Whether it's meeting you and your loved ones on the scene of an accident or simply being available around town to just come say Hello, I'm here for you day and night. It's the right thing to do, as your agent-and as your neighbor. If you don't see me in the area, you'll likely find me playing golf, enjoying the lake, or supporting Clemson sports. I'm thankful to be surrounded by one of the most beautiful areas in the country that allows time to relax and refocus with my family.

Come join the State Farm Family! We cant wait to meet you!
