Brad Garofalo

I was born in Upland and grew up in Wrightwood, California. I left the mountains and obtained my degree in business from Cal State Univ. Bakersfield. While studying, I worked at a soft hits/adult contemporary radio station that transitioned to “Thunder Country.” This is where I met my spectacular wife. We share a fearless, smart, funny, loving and creative daughter. While we were dating, my wife started working for State Farm. I found myself attending functions surrounded by State Farm agents. At the time, I was selling data to auto manufacturers. I was enticed by the idea of working for myself and calling the shots. I liked the idea of being a small business owner. That’s how my journey as a State Farm agent began. In my spare time, you can find me restoring my 1963 Mercury Comet convertible. I also enjoy boating and the time I spend with friends and family on it as we cruise around Long Beach and Catalina. I volunteer in the community by serving as a board member of the Los Cerritos YMCA and heading fundraising events. Los Cerritos YMCA raises funds for families in need, before and after school care, camp, basketball and swim lessons. You will find me at fundraising events like the Comedy Night in Bellflower and Annual Golf Tournament in Whittier. I am passionate about helping people solve problems. I want my customers to feel like they can trust us to help them and be there when they need us the most. My team and I are headquartered in Long Beach.
