Ann Ricard

I began my insurance career in 1989 as an insurance agent with Farm Bureau. In 1994, needing to spend more time at home with our two children I accepted a customer service position with a new State Farm Agency. This invaluable experience re-enforced not just the value, but also the rewards of customer service. Another door opened in 2003 and I went to work with an independent insurance agency. In 2014 I resigned my partnership with that agency to open The Ricard Agency. Discovering the Independent Agency System, has allowed me to combine the product knowledge, company support and commitment to customer service that I hope will set the Ricard Agency apart.

We make a living with what we get, we make a life with what we give. I have had the privilege to be a part of the Midlands Blue Star Mothers since my son’s deployment in 2003. Much of my time away from the office is devoted to the efforts of this group to ensure that the service and sacrifice of so many never goes unacknowledged or unappreciated.
