See What Our Clients Have to Say
Insurance today is a maze and a nightmare to understand, especially for us aging individuals. Andrea has been a fantastic advocate for me and helped me get through some rough obstacles. She is well versed in the insurance field and really cares about her clients! I feel she went above and beyond to help me and I thank her very very much!

Kim, multi-state client
Andrea is truly a wonderful agent who advocates for her clients. I have had claims paid incorrectly and rather than fighting myself, Andrea took it upon herself to address the problem and resolved it quickly saving me several hundred dollars. Her knowledge in the insurance business can't be beat.
