Glenn Waterhouse III

I’ve been a State Farm Agent since 2000, and my path here started after three years of teaching high school and coaching college football.

Over the years, I’ve also been honored as a Chairman’s and Ambassador Qualifier, achievements that reflect the consistency and care my team and I bring to our office.
