As a North Carolina native of over 40 years, and father of three it was extremely important to me to partner with a company that has integrity and an unparalleled reputation. For these reasons and others, I chose State Farm to dedicate my Agency career with, and I couldn't be happier with the decision. It is my honor to help those living in this great state with their insurance and financial needs- my goal is to help the community and families, as I would my own. I look forward to working with all North Carolinians to achieve their dreams and find financial security. Please reach out anytime to get to know myself and/or the team. We would welcome the opportunity to meet with you in person or virtually! Thank you. Joel
