After graduating from Jacksonville State University in 1990 with a Marketing and Management degree, David joined FKS and Associates, an independent claims adjusting company.  He handled home, auto and commercial claims before becoming a Catastrophe Property Adjuster with State Farm Insurance for the next ten years.  He and his team paid out several million dollars to families and businesses due to catastrophe losses during that time.  It was during those 10 years of travel throughout the United States that he discovered his “Why” as it relates to the insurance industry.  We can REALLY help people when things get sideways if we are protected properly.  

In 2000, David moved back to his hometown of Jacksonville, Alabama with his wife and two children to join his parents in their independent insurance agency, Calhoun County Insurance Center, Inc.  In 2010, David became the owner of the agency and opened two branch offices.  

David and his team joined the Lyons HR family in 2020 to form Aligned Insurance in an effort to offer a complete business insurance package to his clients, including payroll and payroll tax services, group medical, dental and vision, 401K products, along with other supplemental benefits including group life, accident, and disability insurance.  He also highly recommends HR services for the small business owner through Lyons HR. 

David is a former CIC (Certified Insurance Counselor) and is a member of Calhoun County Homebuilders as well as the Calhoun and Etowah Chambers of Commerce.  You will most definitely find him on the Coosa River from time to time or parking next to one of his Jeep brothers with the doors off in the summer.
