I'm a second-generation Allstate representative. My father, John Burnette, was an Allstate representative for 28 years, opening the agency in 1981. I purchased it from him in 2007. I worked as his Office Manager for six years before that, so you could say Allstate runs in the family.
Outside of work, I try to stay involved with local organizations. I'm a member of the Palmdale, Ridgecrest and Santa Clarita Valley chambers of commerce. I'm a proud supporter of the Boy Scouts of America, the Allstate Foundation's Purple Purse, as well as local homeless shelters and Cardborigami, an organization that provides shelter for those in need through innovative designs.
In my spare time, I enjoy golfing, using my barbecue smoker and spending time with my family. I have a beautiful wife, Andrea, two sons, Christian and Ryan, a daughter, Ashley, and our yorkie pup, Sonic. Throughout the year, you'll find us enjoying all the community offers, including the Antelope Valley Fair, Lancaster Boulevard (known as The BLVD) for shopping and dining, and our open air flea market, the Antelope Valley Swap Meet.
A few additional fun facts about me – I’ve visited 23 countries thanks to my past naval career and love theme parks!
I became an Allstate representative because I knew I wanted to help residents of the Antelope Valley. I love my staff and the customers we help. Interacting with them daily and helping families protect what matters most to them is what fulfills me professionally. At our offices, we have a diverse team of different professional and personal backgrounds, beliefs and cultures. We have staff members who are fluent in Spanish and English, so we can assist you in either language.
I measure my agency's success as a small business by the happiness and achievements of my staff and customers. Whether you're in need of a basic home or auto policy, or you're a small-business owner looking for business insurance, we’re here to help. Stop by one of our three offices today to say hello and see how we can assist you.
