55+ years in beautiful Susquehanna County, serving Montrose, New Milford, Hallstead, Great Bend, Susquehanna and the entire county (and beyond) !

Located right on the shores of scenic Lake Montrose near shopping & county offices, just a quick drive to Salt Springs and Old Mill Village state parks.

As a local agent, I know the benefits (and challenges) of life in our small towns. My granddad worked his entire life in the Hallstead Iron Foundry so I grew up with the understanding that a "hard-days' work" was a REQUIREMENT not an OPTION, and was taught your hard work during the week paid for your right to have fun on the weekend when it was time to hike, hunt, shoot, and ride!

I believe in doing business the old-fashioned way which means I'm always willing to meet you nights and weekends with a handshake at your kitchen table, your farm or job site -- but I also embrace technology and realize that sometimes a quick text message can be the most effective way to get you the answers you need when you need them!

From car, truck, and home to insurance for your farm, business, or rental property; I can protect everything that's important to you! And that means your vacation cottage, cabin and all your toys: motorcycles, ATV's, side-by-sides, and boats - having an agent that's an avid motorcyclist means I speak the lingo and know Slingshots aren't just for tin cans, and Shovelheads aren't folks with misshapen craniums! I also enjoy classics and sports cars and am a frequent attendee at car shows, cruise nights, and rallies. I'm a member of the AMA, BMWMOA, and two-time IBA Iron-Butt Association long-distance certificate holder: 1,901 miles in less than 36-hours & 1,303 miles in less than 24-hours.

Call, click, or just drop in - I'm confident you'll quickly see why we're different! (and that's a good thing!)

Q: What coverage is required when leasing a car?

Q: How does a life insurance policy actually function?

Q: What kinds of things does renters insurance protect?

A: Renters insurance helps protect the things you own if something unexpected happens.
