I have been with American Family Insurance for 11 years and with Jean Garinger’s Agency for four years. When I am not working, I spend my time with my daughter on outdoor adventures or attending concerts. I love to attend all of my daughter's extracurricular activities or playing piano or guitar. I take pride in working for American Family Insurance as it gives me the opportunity to help others.

I have been working for this agency for a couple of months now, and I have really enjoyed my time learning and getting licensed. I’m excited to continue a career that has brought my family many memories and blessings. I love music and traveling. I’m happy to know this career can take you all over the place.

I have had the pleasure of working for Jean for 5 years. I spend most of my days taking payments and handling claims, I am very proud to work for American Family Insurance, and my interaction with our customers has allowed me to form many valuable friendships. Birthday calls are my favorite! Emily is my only child. I have one fur baby named Ivy Belle, Ivy gets to come to work with me everyday, her job is to sleep... and she does a GREAT job!

I graduated from UNLV in 1989 with a BS in Hotel Administration. I worked for the US Air Force for 9 years Managing Officer’s Clubs at three different bases. Then, I spent the next 15 years in the Hospitality field in a variety of positions from Sales to Regional Director. Wanting to make a change, Jean Garinger gave me my first opportunity in the insurance field in 2013. Making this a new career I moved to Lawrence, KS and worked for another American Family Insurance Agent. I now co-own Solutions Tax + Accounting, but still want to continue in the insurance industry also, now that we are able to work remotely I have returned to work part-time for Jean’s Agency.
