As the air turns crisp and the leaves put on their brilliant fall colors, autumn brings a wonderful chance to slow down and enjoy time with the people who matter most. With family gatherings and special days just around the corner, it’s a season for making memories—and thinking about how to help protect the future you’re building together.
Whether you’re considering life insurance for the first time or reviewing the coverage you already have, now is a great time to explore your options. A quick review can help you see whether your plan still fits your family’s needs and your goals.
Make this season a fresh start for protecting what matters.
Although State Farm Insurance is a large company, my office is local, offering you the benefit of both worlds: the security of a financially sound company combined with the personalized knowledge of a Berkeley local. Since 1985, when I started my State Farm Agency in Berkeley with degrees from UC Berkeley (BA Music) and University of Illinois, Champaign-Urbana (MA Music), I have been dedicated to enriching the community through my musical skills on the violin and viola, supporting local organizations like Cazadero Performing Arts Camps, Young People's Symphony Orchestra, Berkeley Symphony, San Francisco Opera, and Albany Music Fund (more below).

In addition to my insurance work, I am actively involved in supporting local musical organizations such as Cazadero Performing Arts Camps, Young People's Symphony Orchestra, Berkeley Symphony, San Francisco Opera, and Albany Music Fund.

Previously, I served as a Scoutmaster for Berkeley Troop 5 and was the President of the NALU chapter (now named NAIFA).
