Welcoming January: A Time for New Beginnings and Protection

As December’s holiday celebrations give way to the fresh start of January, it’s the perfect moment to reflect on the past year and prepare for what lies ahead in 2026. Just as the new year brings renewed hope and opportunities, it’s also an ideal time to review your insurance coverage to ensure you and your loved ones are protected throughout the seasons to come.

While December often centers on family gatherings and celebrations, January symbolizes fresh starts, and protection—values that resonate deeply with our commitment to safeguarding your home, vehicles, business, and everything you cherish.

My team and I are proud to serve as your local Minnesota State Farm agents, conveniently located in the Macalester-Groveland and Highland neighborhoods of St. Paul. We also serve Minneapolis, Mendota Heights, Roseville, Eagan, West St. Paul, South St. Paul, and surrounding communities. Our team is licensed to assist Wisconsin residents, including those in Hudson, New Richmond, and nearby areas.

With 27 years of experience as a second-generation State Farmer, I lead a dedicated team ready to provide personalized insurance guidance—whether you need Auto, Homeowners, Renters, Life, Health, Business, Pet Insurance, or other State Farm products.

As winter weather settles in, now is an excellent time to ensure your policies are up to date to handle icy roads, frozen pipes, and other seasonal challenges.

If you’re a small business owner in Minnesota or Wisconsin, we’d love to connect and discuss how Business Insurance can protect your livelihood. We also assist families and businesses relocating to Minnesota, helping make your transition as smooth as possible.

Being a longtime resident of Saint Paul and now Woodbury, I’m deeply involved in our community. I’ve served on the Payne-Phalen Corridor Council and the St. Paul District Five Council and currently volunteer as an assistant Scoutmaster for a Woodbury Boy Scout troop. When I’m not assisting with your insurance needs, I enjoy camping and canoeing with my family—embracing the great outdoors whenever possible.

Start 2026 with confidence—call, text, or email us today for a free Auto Insurance quote. We look forward to helping you protect what matters most this new year!
