ABOUT OUR AGENCY:
I opened my agency in 1989 and currently lead an experienced team of 10. Before becoming a State Farm agent, I earned my business degree and worked in the aerospace industry. My path to State Farm actually began through football - my college football coach was a State Farm agent and recruited me to pursue the opportunity. Decades later, State Farm has become a family tradition, with my oldest son now an agent as well.
Outside of work, family is incredibly important to me. I’ve been married for 45 years and am a proud grandfather of five. Having played college football myself, athletics have also remained an important part of my life. Our agency stays connected to that passion by sponsoring local high school athletics and supporting programs throughout football season.
Our agency offers health insurance, paid holidays, paid time off, licensing reimbursement, and a strong commitment to work-life balance. Team members are also eligible for a life insurance benefit after one year of employment.
Our office is relaxed and enjoyable, but we still believe in having clear expectations and taking pride in our work. I’m looking for someone who is dependable, trustworthy, honest, loyal, and self-motivated. Above all, we value people who do the right thing even when no one is watching. If you’re looking for an established agency where you can enjoy the people you work with while being trusted to take ownership of your responsibilities, we’d love to meet you.

Search Insurance Jobs in ArkansasInsurance OPT Sponsorship Jobs in Arkansas: Frequently Asked Questions
Which insurance companies sponsor F-1 OPT visas in Arkansas?
Shelter Insurance, headquartered in Columbia, Missouri, with substantial Arkansas operations, and Stephens Insurance in Little Rock are among the regional employers that have hired OPT workers. National carriers with Arkansas offices, including Allstate, State Farm, and Zurich, also sponsor F-1 OPT candidates, particularly for actuarial, data analytics, and underwriting roles where quantitative degree backgrounds align closely with job requirements.
Which cities in Arkansas have the most insurance F-1 OPT sponsorship jobs?
Little Rock is the clear center of insurance hiring in Arkansas, home to the state's largest carriers, brokerages, and the Arkansas Insurance Department. Fayetteville and Bentonville in the northwest corridor have seen growth tied to Walmart's supplier ecosystem, which drives demand for commercial risk and liability roles. Fort Smith offers a smaller but active market for claims and customer-facing insurance positions.
What types of insurance roles typically qualify for F-1 OPT sponsorship?
Roles that require a specific technical degree tend to qualify most readily. Actuarial analyst positions tied to mathematics or statistics degrees, data analyst and predictive modeling roles connected to computer science or applied math programs, and financial risk analyst positions linked to finance or economics degrees are common fits. General sales or service roles, where no degree in a specific field is required, are less likely to qualify.
How do I find insurance F-1 OPT sponsorship jobs in Arkansas?
Migrate Mate is built specifically for F-1 OPT job seekers and filters insurance listings in Arkansas by sponsorship availability, saving you from sorting through postings that won't support your work authorization. Search by the Insurance category and filter for Arkansas to see active roles at carriers and brokerages that have demonstrated willingness to sponsor OPT candidates, including positions in Little Rock, Fayetteville, and surrounding areas.
Are there any Arkansas-specific considerations for F-1 OPT sponsorship in insurance?
Arkansas requires insurance professionals in licensed roles, such as adjusters and agents, to hold a state-issued license regardless of visa status, which adds a step for OPT candidates in those tracks. For non-licensed technical roles like actuarial analysis or data analytics, no state license is required. OPT candidates in STEM-designated programs may be eligible for the 24-month STEM OPT extension, which can make Arkansas employers more willing to invest in sponsorship given the longer authorized work period.
