As summer winds down and August kicks into gear, many of us are soaking up the last lake days, finishing up vacations, or gearing up for the back-to-school season. Whether you're preparing a teen for their first commute, reviewing your Life Insurance, or thinking about new ways to protect your home or business before fall arrives, my team and I are here to help make sure you’re covered for whatever’s next.

I’m a five-generation native of Western North Carolina and proud to support families across this beautiful region. My wife, Karri, and I have been married for 19 years and are raising our three amazing kids—Harper Rose, Cash Hyatt, and our youngest, Reese Elizabeth—right here in the community we love. We stay active in civic and nonprofit work and believe deeply in giving back.

Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of serving as President of the Franklin Chamber of Commerce (2023) and Past President of the Lions Club of Franklin. I’m also a member of the Carolina Smokies Association of Realtors and both the Highlands and Cashiers Chambers of Commerce. Our office is licensed in North Carolina, South Carolina, and Georgia, and we’re here to help with Auto, Home, Life, Disability, and Pet Insurance.

Whether you're wrapping up summer or diving into fall routines, we’re ready when you are—let’s talk through your coverage and make sure you’re ready for the season ahead.
