I've been a team member of the Charlson Agency for 40 years. As Office Manager I enjoy helping people with their insurance needs (especially Life Insurance) & love it when they believe in me enough to refer relatives and friends to the Agency. I enjoy being with my family, I have a daughter Deb and son Michael whom I'm very proud of and have awesome Grandchildren and love that I can be part of their lives!

I have been with State Farm for 25 years. My passion is to teach my customers about their insurance needs so they can make informed decisions. I’m licensed in auto, fire, life, health and business insurance. I have worn many hats during my life but they have all involved my desire to help people. I have worked as an Occupational Therapist, Big Box Retail Manager, District Human Resource Manager. I lost my husband 10 years ago to cancer which prompted my move back to MN, where I was born and raised. I have a son, step son and step daughter and 7 grandchildren that I like to visit in CA. When I’m not working I enjoy reading a good book and spending time with friends and family.

My name is Sara Anderson and I am a single mother to a fourteen year old daughter who is a professional artist and the light of my life. I am the Commercial Account Manager for the Charlson Agency and have worked for the Charlson Family since 6/12/2017. I am a resident of Woodbury and enjoy spending time with my daughter, reading, crocheting and make short films for YouTube in my spare time.

Nora recently moved back to Minnesota after living in California for over 20 years. Utilizing her restaurant management skills, Nora is dedicated to providing excellent customer service with a passion to deliver value. As a State Farm customer herself for nearly 20 years, Nora is looking forward to growing with the Charlson Agency. Her adult son told her that he is a “California dude” and has chosen to stay in the Bay Area. When she can, she visits with him and also enjoys bringing him to Minnesota, or they travel together to Mexico to be with her parents at their winter home. You can find Nora walking along the river or nestled up with a good book on her free time.

I’m Jeryl-lyn. I started with State Farm in 2020 and I have been in customer service for 25 years. I am new to the insurance world and love that there is no “one size fits all” policy and every day is a new learning experience. My family consists of one husband, two daughters and two dogs, Jack & Emma. Some of my favorite things to do are: spend time with my friends & family & spend summer weekends at our cabin in Wisconsin
