Bill Herrera

Mom & Dad said, Son, you and only you are responsible for the person you become. As you read this, I hope I made them proud.  I was born and raised In Santa Paula, CA. After graduating from the University of Southern California in 1985 with a BS Degree in Business, I went to work in the accounting department of a small computer company. My father owned the largest Dental Laboratory from Santa Maria to Los Angeles with 3 locations. He called me one morning out if the blue and said Son, I need help, gave my two week notice and I went to work for him as his General Manager/Chief Financial Officer. Five years later I had the opportunity to own my own business and opened my State Farm Insurance Agency in Fillmore CA, October 1, 1992. I am located at the intersection of First Street and Central Ave, right across the street from Fillmore High School, home of THE FLASHES! As they say the rest is history, 30 years later I enjoy coming to work every day and serving my policyholders who I consider my friends. I love talking to people about life and how insurance can help them plan for the unexpected.  My Agency partner Debbie Sanchez has been with me for 30 years. My mom recently retired after being with my agency for 15 years, at the young age of 80. Give us a call, we would love to be your Insurance Agency
