At Burnette Insurance Group I serve as the Office Manager as well as an Agent.

I was born and raised in Louisburg, North Carolina. I am the youngest girl in my family with two older sisters and a younger brother. Growing up as one of four children I was constantly and still am striving to set myself apart and make my own way in life.

Burnette Insurance Group is an active member in our county chamber: The Greater Franklin County Chamber of Commerce is where I also serve as a Chamber Ambassador. Through the Chamber and my career is where I’ve found leadership and a great support to building small businesses in our county and growing relationships.

Upon making a decision about which career field I’d wanted to venture into, I had to consider what I wanted my three biggest contributions in life to be: 1) I wanted to help people. 2) I wanted to educate people. 3) I wanted to help others prosper and grow as well. With those three contributions in mind, I made the decision to join Daffy Leonard on her journey of opening this business. I admired her sense of credibility for others, her genuine care and interest in people who were just stranger’s minutes upon speaking with her, and her morals “If we treat everyone with dignity, respect, and always do what is in the best interest for our policy holders, we will make it!”

Since then I’ve learned a lot about myself and welcomed my new opportunity with open arms. I jumped head first into a career that brings me so much happiness to work in. I’ve developed myself not only in my job, but in all aspects of life. I get incredible joy from being able to get to know our policy holders on a level that isn’t just a “customer relationship.” When our policy holder’s experience hardships, we do too!
