I’m a fourth-generation native of Colorado — all the way back to my great-grandparents. I was born here, raised here and raised my own kids here. I attended Denver Public Schools and graduated from John F. Kennedy High School in Denver. My family was so proud when I graduated from University of Colorado Boulder, because I was the first person in my family to graduate college. I worked through college while also serving the school as student body president. It was a great way to learn leadership skills and give back to the university.
No matter the season, you can find me rooting for and going to sports events. I especially love the Denver Broncos, Nuggets and Avalanche. I try to make it to as many games as I can. You can also often find me on the sidelines of youth sports as well, cheering on my kids and their friends.
Jake Kettles, who lives in the northwest metro area runs the Thornton office, along with several Spanish-speaking staff members. Being an Allstate agent has been a family affair for us. My wife worked in our offices for many years, and my oldest son currently works for me. I’m proud to tell people that I have been associated with Allstate since 1988 and enjoy serving customers every day.
