  Jennifer Hogeland

  Sales Manager

  I’ve been representing Allstate since 2019. I actually got into insurance hoping for a part time position, but quickly realized the passion I had for helping others and decided to make it a career. I wanted to make a difference in other people’s lives, and I feel it’s truly an honor being able to help and serve others. Insurance is not only vitally important, but it also provides hope and comfort in times of tragedy. Outside of work, I love spending time with my daughter. When we’re not at a basketball game, volleyball game, or softball game, I enjoy spending time with family, coaching, crafting, and being outdoors.

  Ashley O'Donnell

  Sales Manager

  I am married to my best friend and have 3 wonderful kids that I completely adore: 19- and 13-year-old boys and a 10 year old daughter. Between family adventures and scraping up Brielle's slime messes, we live our life going to soccer, ballet, gymnastics, drama, chorus or wherever the wind leads the kids. I love helping people and that is why I got into insurance, to help others.

I feel blessed to have the opportunity to help families with the insurance, and assist them as their lives progress and change. Looking at the stand along term 'insurance,' it may not adequately give enough context as to why I chose this career. The results of what I see from helping people is what means the most to me, and also what motivates me. The labor and love behind it perse. This includes, developing a true relationship with customers and caring about them as a person, as well as helping them understand what they have/don't have, and what they need/don't need. I truly have a heart for building those relationships and having customers trust me. They are they key to what we do.

  Hi, My Name is Jalen D Owens. I am a proud father to my 2-year-old son Kairo who means everything and beyond to me. He essentially was a main reason for why I made a career change into the world of insurance. I may be a new kid on the block, but after a short conversation with me, you would think I am a seasoned veteran in insurance. This choice has been a no brainer decision for me because of my unique mix of customer service, management, and sales experience. Being extremely personable helps as well! 😊 I am a Pisces that was born on the blizzard of the century on March 13th, 1993, in Pittsburgh Pennsylvania. My favorite hobbies include watching movies/sports/anime, listening to music, traveling, shoe collecting, and most importantly, being the best father I can possibly be. It is a blessing to have the opportunity to represent Allstate and with such a fantastic team of people at that! I look forward to growing with them and becoming the best I can be. It’s nice to know that being in “Good Hands” extends to not just customers, but employees as well!
