Agribusiness Farm Insurance Specialist
“I have hands-on experience working across a wide range of agricultural operations, including cattle, horse, hay, corn, and tobacco farms. Through this work, I have gained a strong understanding of each stage of the farming process, from daily animal care and field preparation to planting, maintenance, and harvest. This broad experience has given me practical knowledge, adaptability, and a clear understanding of how different types of farms operate day to day.
This background allows me to understand the risks, responsibilities, and labor demands farmers face. Because I am familiar with the realities of farm work, I can better recognize what a farmer needs when evaluating workers’ compensation insurance to ensure their employees and operation are properly protected.
I also served as a housing inspector for the state of Kentucky, where I gained valuable insight into the H-2A program. In addition to this role, Along with my family having years of experience working as H-2A agents, which further expanded my understanding of the program. Together, these experiences gave me a strong grasp of housing requirements, safety standards, compliance regulations, and the overall process farmers navigate when employing H-2A workers.
My passion is agriculture and helping farmers succeed by making complex processes as simple and stress-free as possible. By streamlining requirements and offering knowledgeable support, I aim to ensure farmers can stay focused on what matters most to them, running their operation, caring for their land and livestock, and producing a successful harvest.”

Frequently Asked Questions
What does workers’ compensation cover on a farm?
Workers’ compensation provides benefits for employees who are injured or become ill while performing their job duties. It typically covers medical expenses, wage replacement, and rehabilitation support, ensuring both employees and employers are protected in case of an accident.
Is workers’ compensation required for agricultural businesses?
Requirements vary by state, but in most cases, farms and agricultural operations with employees must carry workers’ compensation insurance. It’s essential to stay compliant with state laws to avoid fines and ensure your workers are properly protected.
Does workers’ compensation cover seasonal and H-2A workers?
Yes. Our policies include coverage for both seasonal and H-2A guest workers, helping you stay compliant with all labor and safety regulations while protecting every member of your workforce.
How can workers’ compensation help improve farm safety?
Beyond financial coverage, workers’ compensation fosters a culture of safety on your farm. When employees know they’re protected, they feel valued and encouraged to follow proper safety practices, leading to fewer accidents and higher team morale.
What makes The Worker’s Comp Experts different from other providers?
We specialize exclusively in workers’ compensation for the H2A program and agricultural industry. Our in-depth understanding of farming operations, regulatory requirements, and real-world challenges allows us to offer tailored coverage, expert guidance, and responsive support every step of the way.
How are workers’ comp premiums calculated in agriculture with seasonal payroll swings?
Premiums are based largely on payroll and class codes, then “trued up” at audit. If your team shifts between duties (harvest work, equipment operation, trucking, packing), separating payroll cleanly by role can reduce audit surprises and help keep your rate accurate.
