     I was honored and humbled to have been selected to be a State Farm Agent in 1984.  I am proud to still be an active agent serving the greater Bay Area and all of California.  My team is a testament to responsible insurance coverage such as auto, fire and life.  They are focused on serving those insured with us and understand the value of quality insurance products.  Our office team of five together have 88 years of capable insurance experience.  We provide exceptional service.

    Raised in San Leandro, CA my career evolved from a seminary student to a supervisor with social services to my opportunity to be a State Farm Agent.  I served as president of our insurance association for Alameda County and have been awarded various honors in my career.  “Like a good neighbor”, I have over the years have been a community volunteer as a scout leader, a soccer coach, a fixture at the American Cancer Society Relay For Life, Oakland Ceasefire, a social justice leader and other organizations.

   Due to the pandemic, my office team and my wife volunteered to assist Dig Deep Farms Food Hub each Friday since June 2020.   We see this as our duty to give - as food and hunger is a constant.  We have witnessed tears of joy from people getting food from this organization.  I am appreciative of my State Farm team and my loyal customers for making it possible to give back. My experience of volunteering affirms humanity with its positive spirit of giving.

     This career has allowed me to raise two children of whom I am quite proud.  Additionally, I have been happily married for 47 years.

    I look forward to being a genuine and reliable  father, husband, friend and insurance agent for many more years to come.         ~
