I have worked for Outland Insurance for almost 4 years.
Why did you choose to work here?
A part-time customer service position led to the opportunity to become an agent.

Nationwide offers a comprehensive product which has not only helped protect farmers throughout the nation but we work closely with local farmers and Farm Bureau officers to keep the product relevant to current ever-changing needs.
Why do you think it’s important to know where your food comes from?
First of all it helps me appreciate every bite.

Regulation and how the mass community doesn’t understand the heart of the rural farmer.

I believe in making sure there are still farms for the next generation and that our current youth can keep small farms alive and producing.
What Farm Bureau programs are you most active in?
Currently planning the upcoming Wyandot County fair and helping at the local board meetings.
What are your hobbies besides farming?
I have a teenage son active in sports, so between sporting events I remain active in my church and enjoy quality time with my friends and family.
