Shawn Manniel

I didn’t start in insurance because it was easy — I started because I saw what happens when people don’t plan.

"My father earned a good income but had no financial plan, no retirement plan, and no assets to show for his efforts. My grandmother, on the other hand, had life insurance that provided stability when it mattered most. That contrast shaped how I view money, protection, and security.

At 18, I became licensed and began helping families with life, auto, and home coverage. Early in my career, I saw firsthand how the right protection can make all the difference during life’s unexpected events.

Over the past 12 years, I’ve worked for multiple agencies, built my own Farmers Insurance office from the ground up, earned my Chartered Life Underwriter® (CLU) designation, and assisted thousands of households in safeguarding what matters most.

Today, as the owner of the Shawn Manniel State Farm Agency, I offer:

• Life Insurance — term, whole, and personalized options

• Auto Insurance — for cars, motorcycles, and more

• Homeowners & Renters Insurance — property and liability protection

• Business Insurance — coverage designed for small business owners
