About Agent Jess:
I kicked off my State Farm adventure back in 2011 right here in Fort Madison as a team member for another Agent. Over time, my love for this community (and my customers!) grew so much that I became an Agent in 2021. I’m a true Southeast Iowa kid—born and raised in Keokuk. My husband Chris and I have our hands full with our adorable toddler, Will, plus our two mischief-makers, Bo and Gus, our beagles. When I’m not working, you’ll probably catch me volunteering around town or immersing myself in all things home related- I love interior design, art and cooking. I genuinely love what I do and feel lucky every day to serve such an awesome community. Helping neighbors, supporting local businesses, and making a difference? That’s what gets me out of bed in the morning (well, that and coffee)! Give our office a call today! We can assist you in all facets of insurance- Auto, Home, Life, Health, as well as Retirement, and other financial needs. My team and I have a combined experience of over 38 years and are ready to help you.

- Q: Why did you become an insurance agent? I am most passionate about helping people with their life insurance! I am all about making sure families are protected for generations to come.

Life insurance is the last love letter you leave to your family!
