Back to school tips for young drivers:

Please remind your student to avoid leaving valuables visible in their cars and ensure that your young driver is free from distractions. Some distractions to consider include phone usage (calls, texts, photos/videos, social media), changing music, eating and drinking, having passengers, transporting pets, reaching for items like a purse or backpack, drowsiness, and grooming (fixing hair or makeup) while driving. Also, discourage sight-seeing while behind the wheel.

I am proud to be a father to three amazing boys - Joey, Liam, and Landon. They are my motivation and have contributed greatly to my success in life.

In addition to being a dedicated father, I am also a volunteer firefighter for the Town of Elkin. I joined the department in 2021 and find immense joy in serving and protecting my community. Helping others and giving back has always been a passion of mine.

It was in December of 2017 when my parents experienced a house fire. Thankfully, everyone was safe, and we witnessed the exceptional customer service provided by State Farm, their insurance carrier. This experience solidified my desire to work for such a reputable company.

In August 2019, I started working for a State Farm agent who helped nurture my skills and development within the company. After two years, I took a leap of faith and decided to become an agent myself. My previous experience as a State Farm team member taught me how to provide exceptional coverage to our customers, offering various insurance options such as auto, home, renters, life, commercial, and financial services.

On April 1st, 2022, I proudly opened the doors to my own State Farm office in Downtown Statesville. The community of Iredell County has warmly welcomed me and my team. As a small business owner, I understand the challenges we face, so I am a strong advocate for supporting local businesses.

At the Emilio Lopez State Farm Agency, we understand that life doesn't always go as planned. Our responsibility is to help you make informed decisions regarding your insurance and financial service needs. I invite you to visit our office and meet our incredible team members. We are eager to provide you and your family with the coverage you require.
