I, Bruce E. L. M. Strothers, established this local small business to empower and protect what matters most to the community I grew up in! Earlier career credentials aside, I'm the only State Farm Agent Owner (I know of, at least) who never set foot in any insurance agency, in any capacity, ever, before starting this business five years ago. Today, my Team and I have achieved State Farm President's Circle Agent Owner status—meaning we’ve performed in the top 2-3% of all State Farm Agencies, nationwide.

When I was eight years old, my Dad died without proper insurance, leaving my Mom to continue working as a Hospice Care Provider to raise myself and my siblings. From Mom's lessons, I worked while putting myself though college (Brown University, Providence RI), worked through law school (Seattle University Law), worked through passage of several Bar Exams, worked through enrollment in a Master of Fine Arts graduate program (Berkeley, CA) and worked through earning a second law degree (Columbia University, NY, NY). Nearly 25 years of work (including with a few real billionaires) enabled me to pay off my Double Ivy League student load debt, then open and sustain this business. Thanks to Mom, no matter how hopeless things seemed, she always inspired me with a "there's always a way," belief, resilient energy (and yes, I’m a huge fantasy/science fiction story lover, too)!

This quarter century of work paying off hundreds of thousands of student loan debt could have been avoided (and several successful businesses could've been started much earlier) with the right insurance protections! This is why my Team (who I support, encourage, and admire) and I sit down with our Families, "imagining their horrible hypotheticals together," then "building bulletproof protection plans together," which fund their dreams, making them REALITIES no matter what! To demystify, we take time to find out what matters most to YOU, offer insurance plans to protect YOU, and make YOUR dreams REALITY, so please call us today! Sincerely, genuinely, authentically, earnestly and keeping it real, BELMS November 29, 2023
