I live my life by the belief that you should take life on day at a time. It’s easy to get overwhelmed when you try to see everything at once, but it’s when you focus on the now that you start making progress.

I am a commercial insurance advisor and co-owner of Redwoods Leavitt Insurance, where I focus on helping large businesses find insurance solutions. I take pride in my work ethic because I do what is right for my client and I’m always honest and upfront with them.

While I haven’t spent my entire professional insurance career with Leavitt Group, I’m here now because they are the most honest and straightforward agency I have ever worked with in my 14 years in the industry. 

My childhood was spent in Medford, Oregon. I graduated from Southern Oregon University in 1999 with my Bachelor of Arts in History. Since then, I’ve continued my education and am now a Certified Insurance Counselor (CIC) and a Certified Risk Manager (CRM). Nowadays, I live with my significant other and our five kids in the Medford area.

Our community is fantastic! I enjoy serving here as a member of the local Rotary Club and Chamber of Commerce. My favorite local restaurant is Pie and Vine in Ashland — I’ve never had a bad meal there.

I love being surrounded by mountains and outdoor hangout spots like lakes and rivers, which are just a hop, skip, and a jump away. When I’m not working, I enjoy golfing, tennis, pickle ball, rafting, swimming, roasting coffee, and BBQing. Basically, I’m happy doing anything that involves the outdoors.
