My story begins in Denmark, where I was born before immigrating to the United States with my family. Along the way, we also spent a short period in Iran for my father’s work before ultimately settling in America and building our lives here. From a young age, my parents impressed upon me how special the opportunities and freedoms in this country truly are. Watching their hard work, determination, gratitude, and commitment to serving others left a lasting impression on me.

In 1994, my mother founded what would become the foundation of our family’s insurance agency. Seeing her dedication to helping people protect what mattered most inspired me to follow the same path. I officially joined Farmers Insurance in 2012, and in 2022 I had the privilege of taking over the agency.

My professional journey was strengthened through my education at California State University Channel Islands (when it was affiliated with the CSUN campus) and my entry into the insurance industry in 2004. These experiences helped shape the knowledge and perspective I bring to my clients today. The values I grew up with—gratitude, service, and protection—continue to define our agency’s vision: appreciating where we are today while helping protect our clients’ futures and the assets they have worked so hard to build.

Today, we are proud to provide comprehensive services through Farmers Insurance Group, Farmers Financial Solutions, and Koors Insurance Group. Our services include:

• Personal insurance: Auto, home, umbrella, life, watercraft, motorcycle, recreational vehicles, and vacant land
 • Commercial insurance: Restaurants, medical practices, accounting firms, auto repair businesses, manufacturing, and e-commerce operations
 • Financial services: IRAs, 401(k)s, and mutual funds

On a personal note, 2025 marked an especially meaningful new chapter in my life as my wife, Vanessa, and I welcomed our beautiful daughter. Becoming a father has given me an even deeper appreciation for the importance of protecting what matters most.

Outside of work, I have a passion for ultramarathon running, particularly in remote mountain environments. Over the past 20 years, I have completed more than 80 ultramarathons. The discipline, endurance, and mental strength required in these races mirror the same persistence and commitment I bring to serving my clients. The experience is both humbling and incredibly rewarding, and it constantly reminds me of the value of preparation and resilience.

For me, this business has always been about more than insurance policies and financial products. It’s about relationships, trust, and helping people feel confident about their future. That is the responsibility I am proud to carry forward every day.
