My name is Austin M. Bruce. I come from the potato-covered fields of Idaho. I graduated from Brigham Young University - Idaho in 2019 where I received my BS Degree in Business Finance. During my time at University, I married my high school sweetheart Sarah, and a little over a two years ago we welcomed an amazing little girl named Brynlee into our family. We also have 2 dogs Auggie and Fergus. Outside of work you can find us searching for authentic Chinese and Latin American food in town. We lived in China for 4 months teaching English and I lived in Honduras, Tegucigalpa for two years as a service missionary for my church. So, we love finding food that reminds us of our time abroad.

I started my insurance career as an Account Manager for a State Farm agent in Rexburg, Idaho in 2019. No one grows up wanting to be an insurance agent and I was no different, but after my studies in personal financial management that changed. I want to help people have a working knowledge of Insurance and finances so they can achieve their goals and have greater freedom.

My goal for my office is to be a financial tool the community. We will be here to help you understand your auto insurance, homeowners insurance, renters insurance and life insurance policies.
