Diane Smith

Welcome to the Diane Smith State Farm Agency!

Since opening our doors on June 1, 2018, our office has proudly helped individuals, families, and business owners protect what matters most. Our agency offers Auto, Home, Renters, Business, Life, and Business Auto Insurance. We are proud to serve customers throughout the Essex County area of New Jersey and across the state.

I grew up in Chesterfield, Missouri, a small town just outside of St. Louis, and earned a Bachelor of Arts in Media Communications and a Master of Arts in Marketing from Webster University, followed by a Master of Science in Psychology from Walden University. Today, I call the Essex County area of New Jersey home, where I live with my cat, Misty. When I'm not in the office, I enjoy working out, spending time with friends, and exploring my local community.

Owning a business has been a goal of mine since childhood. I've always had an entrepreneurial mindset and wanted to build a business centered on serving others. Becoming a State Farm agent has allowed me to do just that by helping customers understand their insurance options and make informed decisions.

Relationships are at the heart of everything we do. I believe every customer deserves to feel heard, respected, and supported. That belief guides every conversation in our office. We take the time to listen, answer questions, explain insurance in plain language, and help customers understand their options so they can make informed decisions based on their individual needs.

I am committed to continued professional development and staying informed about the insurance industry so I can continue providing knowledgeable service to the customers we serve.

Giving back to the community is important to me. I proudly serve as a Board Member of both the Suburban Essex Chamber of Commerce and the Bloomfield Center Alliance, where I enjoy supporting local businesses and organizations that strengthen our community.

If you're looking for a local team that values honesty, education, and outstanding customer service, we'd love the opportunity to work with you. Give us a call, stop by our office, or reach out today to learn more about how we can help with your insurance needs.

As the sun sets on summer, August gives us a chance to get organized before fall begins. Securing the items inside your apartment keeps your living space secure against unexpected events. Review your setup today so you can enjoy the rest of the season worry-free.

• 🌻 August is a great time for a mid-year insurance checkup before fall arrives.

• 🚗 Auto: Review your policy if you've added a vehicle, changed drivers, or have a teen heading back to school.

• 🎒 Back-to-school: If your student is leaving for college, make sure you understand what coverage applies to their belongings and vehicle.

• 🏡 Home: Take a few minutes to review your coverage after any summer home projects or improvements.

• 🌩️ Storm season: Make sure you understand your coverage for wind, hail, and heavy rain.

• 🚲 Summer purchases: Added a bike, golf cart, e-bike, or other recreational equipment this summer? It may be time to review your coverage.

• ✈️ End-of-summer travel: Before your last vacation of the season, make sure your home, vehicles, and valuables are properly protected while you're away.

• 💼 Business changes: If your business has grown or changed this year, now is a great time to review your coverage.

• 📊 Mid-year review: August is a great time to reassess liability limits and ensure your coverage still aligns with your business goals.

If you have a boat, recreational vehicles or E-bikes, I can help you with those too!
