Her skills not only allow her staff to succeed with confidence but also to do the best possible for each customer. Erika’s dedication and knowledge have been widely recognized by not just her staff but also insurance companies directly, including being one of a few Constituent Agents for the Safeco (Liberty Mutual) Advisory Council. Also directly quoted from a multi-state territory manager, “Erika is one of the best agents in the State in my opinion.”
In her free time, she enjoys making memories with her husband Jake, their daughter, and their dogs. She loves little weekend getaways, traveling to their favorite place (Alaska) and events such as hockey games (Eagles & Avs), Nuggets games, and comedy shows.

Remi
Office Mascot
Remi (a mix breed) is one of Jake and Erika’s dogs. You can often find her sleeping in a lounge office chair or in Erika’s office. She is a calm gentle soul and sometimes comes out to greet customers with love.
Her favorite part of Jackson Insurance is that we can offer pet insurance! Remi encourages everyone to inquire about insuring their fur babies. Whether it is for routine vet visits or major veterinary needs, it is equally important to make sure you and your pets are covered!
Outside of the office, some of her favorite things to do are spending time with their (human) sister, playing with a tennis ball, and having fun outdoors with her fur siblings, Yogi and Nala.
