I have been a licensed personal insurance advisor for 35 years and have been with Stafford-Leavitt for 14 of those years. I also own a cattle farm and have some rental properties, so I understand the commercial side of insurance, too.

At Stafford-Leavitt, we focus on coverages and customer service. We strive to be honest and provide our clients with the best coverage for the best rate to fit their needs. My clients appreciate that I always keep a positive attitude and treat people the way I would want to be treated.

I grew up on a farm southwest of Butler, Missouri, and I live on that same farm now. I have cattle, two horses, two rescue dogs, and five cats. I’m a small-town girl and love the small-town life. My favorite local restaurant is Gray's Cafe in Adrian, Missouri – their tenderloins and fried chicken dinner are the best.

My family is everything to me and I’m blessed with three sons, fourteen grandkids (including their spouses), and eight great-grandkids. For fun, I like to travel to warm places with beautiful beaches, go to Branson, Missouri, and spend time with my family.
