About Me

The Houston Richards State Farm Insurance Agency understands that life is full of the "unexpected." We also understand that it's our job to protect you from that. We know that all insurance policies aren't created equal and it's our responsibility to help you understand that in a world that is ever-changing! 

I have been with State Farm since 2014 and licensed in Missouri, Kansas, Iowa, Illinois and Arkansas. I was born and raised in Independence and still a resident till this day. My team and I take pride in making a difference in our community and helping people make smarter insurance decisions. We don't believe in the cookie cutter insurance policies which is why we take such pride in our personalized approach. We take time to personalize your insurance protection plan to fit you and your needs with the discounts you deserve! We also apply this approach to all of our life insurance and health insurance plans we create. Our promise to our customers has always been one thing; If we know of a way to make your situation better, you're going to know about it! We hope that our dedication to continue to serve our surrounding communities allows them to understand their coverage, what it does for them and provides them with the protection they need!

If there is anything we can assist with, please feel free to give us a call, email or text. We would love the opportunity to earn your business here in our agency and show you why we are your one stop shop for all of your auto, motorcycle, home, renters, condo, life insurance and health insurance needs. We look forward to meeting you!
