I'm a lifelong resident of New Castle, PA and was thrilled when the opportunity to open my State Farm Agency presented itself in 2012. My father has been a State Farm agent over 40 years, so I feel I've learned from the finest!

I began my career with State Farm in 2005 with my own agency in Hermitage, PA then moved into management, but a hometown agency was always my dream. We offer auto insurance, home insurance, and life insurance to protect you and your family. I enjoy getting to know my customers and helping them with all their insurance needs. I'm proud to be a New Castle agent and also proud to have combined offices with my father, Gary Joseph.

My wife and I have three beautiful and very busy children, two girls and one boy. We love living in New Castle where we were both raised and have many family ties. I love being outdoors and helping coach my children's ball teams. Being part of the community is very important to me. I'm so happy to stay in my hometown and help my community with any insurance services. I invite you to call and meet my team, we look forward to earning your business.

Q: Do you have to have home insurance?

A: Homeowners insurance requirements can vary depending on your state and situation, but most lenders will require it if you have home financing.
