The Story of Sitka Insurance

I am not originally from CNY. I grew up a few miles away, in Alaska. I spent my childhood there – often without running water or electricity. I was constantly outside, fishing, hiking, building forts & snow machining. For a brief period, I lived in Juneau, Alaska, which is a small town near Sitka. Sitka is famous for commercial and recreational fishing but is known as one of the most beautiful “hidden gems” in the state. I was incredibly fortunate for this experience and it helped make me the woman I am today.

I realized at a young age that life is about experiences and connections with others. I am most happy when I can help, connect, educate, and protect people.

The insurance industry has provided me with a platform where I can do just that. It has given me a place where I feel at home. Insurance is one of the most important choices to protect you and your family. It’s not easiest to understand, It almost sounds like a different language to most. We strive to make you feel comfortable, heard, and want to make sure you are properly protected for all of the “ifs” in life.

Life is the most beautiful gift we are given. It is meant to be enjoyed, valued, and lived to the fullest through memorable experiences. Let Sitka Insurance do the hard work for you, so you can focus on all of life’s beautiful opportunities.

Thank you so much to all my clients, friends, family, and referral partners. It’s because of you that I am lucky enough to do what I love each day.

Sitka Insurance represents a carefully selected group of financially strong, reputable insurance companies. Therefore, we are able to offer you the best coverage at the most competitive price.

What is an Independent Insurance Agent?

When you decide to buy a car, you wouldn't purchase the first one you see. What if one day the automobile industry decided to make only one type of car, one make and one model. You wouldn't have a choice!

The same situation holds true for insurance. You need insurance to drive a car, to purchase a house, to protect your family's financial future and to run a small business. But if there was only one insurance company that offered only one type of insurance, you wouldn't have a choice. The only solution would be going to that one company.

With an independent insurance agent, you have choices. Independent agents are not tied to any one insurance company. One of the advantages of using an independent agent is that he or she works to satisfy your needs. You are using an expert for an important financial decision.

An independent agent has several companies that he or she can approach to get you the best coverage at the best price. And your independent agent will know the companies with the most efficient claims departments to recover your losses as quickly as possible.

When you buy insurance, you want an advocate who will properly assess the risks you face and give you an objective analysis of the marketplace, because it's up to you to make the final choice.
