SAFEGUARD FINANCIAL: THE TEAM
Growing up in the great western movie era, I wanted to be a horse-riding cowboy. Quickly that dream faded to what I am best suited for owning and managing insurance agencies. Please understand building a fire under the stars has its' merit but my passion has been building insurance programs that protect families against monetary loss. One of my early mentors told me without love there would be no need for insurance. Once you think about it, I am sure you would agree. During my forty-year tenure we have advised over one thousand families with their long-term protection objectives. Although I have received many insurance rewards for my service, it is the relationships built, I value most.
My business is investing in you, by listening, hearing what matters most and designing a program that fits into legacy you wish to create. There is nothing more rewarding than seeing a client's progression from my trusted advisor status to someone they can call a friend. This is what you can expect from us attention to detail putting the right program in place with a budget that works for you. As a father of 4 girls, a grandfather of 8, my wife Naomi and I understand the generational needs of creating a legacy.

John found his real passion when he expanded his career into the Financial Services Industry.
