• As October arrives with full fall schedules, smart homeowners take time to inspect garage door tracks, safety sensors, and motorized openers. Securing garage and home structure insurance helps cover repairs if heavy springs snap or automatic mechanisms fail unexpectedly. It maintains convenient access to your home, ensuring your daily routine stays seamless and secure. Reviewing your property safeguards now guarantees your home stays functional and dependable.

I became a State Farm agent in 2005, after previously working with the company as a service provider. Now I’m proud to be here assisting the residents of East Haven, CT and the surrounding communities—including New Haven, Yale University, Fair Haven, East Rock and Foxon. My agency handles everything from home insurance and renters insurance to car insurance, life insurance, business insurance and more, including financial services.

My dedicated team of professionals welcomes customers from all walks of life and serves speakers of both English, Spanish and Portguese. We’re happy to count university students among our customers, and we love helping young families find their financial footing. Financial services is a particular passion of mine—in addition to insurance, my office can help you with financial services. We love helping people manage everyday risks, plan for a successful future, and protect the things that matter most—and when the unexpected happens, we’ll help you recover quickly. We work with you to craft a coverage plan that suits you — but we never push folks into buying anything they’re not completely comfortable with. Your needs come first.

As for me, I’m a native of Connecticut and a graduate of Western New England University. I have deep roots in this area, of course, and as a former college hockey player, I love sports and doing what I can to stay fit. I’m married and raising three children, and we have two labs keeping us company—and keeping us busy. In our free time, we love traveling with a few other families we’re close to, and our kids play baseball, hockey and lacrosse. There’s always something going on!

My team and I are also proud to support local nonprofits through the State Farm Quotes for Good program, and we enjoy welcoming new transplants to the New Haven area. And we’re always ready to help you find the right home insurance, renters insurance, auto insurance, life insurance or business insurance for your needs. Please call or visit for a free quote.
