As your local State Farm Agent of Spring, Texas, I am very proud to protect this fast-growing community. I grew up in New Orleans before moving to Mississippi when I was 15 years old, where I met my beautiful wife, Amber. We have been married for 17 years! We have 3 children, 2 boys, Luke and Zach, and 1 girl, Katelyn. We also have a 90-pound chocolate lab named Gumbo. I enjoy tennis, gardening, bike rides, and traveling with my family. I recently joined a gym to get in better shape. Made it about 3 times before getting injured! I'll be back.
As for my work life, I have moved wherever the next promotion took me including Knoxville, TN, Hattiesburg, MS, Lafayette, LA. When the opportunity to become a State Farm agent came into my life, we packed our bags for Spring, TX! Prior to becoming a State Farm agent, I worked in lending. For over 17 years, the financial services industry provided me with leadership and management opportunities in several states and at several levels. In my management career, I designed and wrote a branch manager's checklist, which was used company wide as a daily to-do list for branch managers. I was selected as a District Manager Mentor for a training program which helps develop newly promoted district managers, as they develop strategies for leading a team through change and to achieve the results. I led a great team in Louisiana as the first ranked district in the company out of 216 districts nationwide in September 2017. That same team also ranked 1st out of 16 districts in our division for 7 consecutive months from April 2017 through October 2017. I helped promote 5 new branch managers in my district in a 9 month period and coached several of these managers to the top spots in the division in their short time as managers.
Now I get to put all of that experience and hard work into helping protect Texans from the unexpected risks of everyday life. Thank you to all of our wonderful customers who make this worthwhile.
