State Farm® Insurance Agent Josue Rivera

I am deeply honored to be a State Farm Insurance Agent licensed in both NJ and NY!

As a young child raised in a single parent household, I learned early what hard work looks like. I saw my wonderful mother, to whom all my success is due, work tirelessly to provide for her family. Often working multiple jobs, mostly in the non-profit sector, this work ethic was matched with a sense of community involvement. I heard daily "Don't just make a living, make a difference!".

Fast forward through college, and some really great professional opportunities that matched my work ethic with healthy financial rewards and I was set...or so I thought. On the surface I had everything, but I couldn't shake this nagging sense of feeling unfulfilled. Then COVID hit!

I, like many other Americans, watched in horror at the devastation brought on to our healthcare system. The decimation of small businesses which long have provided the backbone for our communities nationwide. I knew I needed to do my part and help in some way. So what does any rational person do in this scenario? They quit their cushy /stable corporate job and decide to open a small business at the height of a global pandemic responsible for economic uncertainty!

We are overjoyed to represent our community with State Farm insurance products (e.g. auto insurance, homeowners insurance, life insurance and business insurance) that properly protect them against loss. We are honored to do this while representing a brand with nearly 100 years of deep community involvement. Mom, I did it! WE are making a difference!
