About us
Spring is here! At Bruce Hofbauer State Farm, we're ready to review your coverage and help you feel confident about 2025. Stop by or call us-we're grateful for the opportunity to work with you and look forward to staying connected!
With over 21 years as a State Farm agent and nearly 32 years of insurance experience, I proudly serve San Diego and surrounding areas. My agency offers homeowners, auto, life, small business insurance, and financial services.
Our experienced team simplifies coverage details and ensures you understand every aspect. We treat your policies with the greatest care and attention to detail. As a Chartered Property Casualty Underwriter (CPCU), I bring expertise in risk management and property-casualty insurance.
Originally from Bloomington, IL, and a University of Illinois graduate, I moved to California two decades ago. In my free time, I enjoy camping, skiing, boating, and hiking with my family and labs. I'm a fan of San Diego sports teams and active in the local business community.
Whether you're new to the area or exploring options, my team and I are here to help you find the right insurance.
