Allstate Insurance Agent: Gail Hinzman

My dad always taught me that you can’t do better than your best, so always give your best and be happy with that. I remember his advice every day as I open the doors to my Allstate office in Clarksburg, West Virginia.

I was born in Los Angeles, but my parents moved our family back to their home state of West Virginia when I was three years old. I love the traditional values you find in this family-oriented region of beautiful, rolling hills. I volunteer with the local Vietnam Veterans chapter, support the American Cancer Society and the Purple Purse campaign. My agency is also an advocate for parent and teen driving safety campaigns.

I have three offices – one in Clarksburg, Morgantown and Uniontown – that I visit every day. Once, I received a visit from a retired agent who had written his own policy. “Aren’t you curious about our prices?” I asked him. When we reviewed his coverage, we discovered ways he could save $300 a year on his coverage. Experiences like that are priceless.
