Joe Ruggiero

My name is Joe Ruggiero, and since 2008, I’ve had the privilege of helping families and businesses protect what matters most with the right insurance coverage here in Owings Mills.

Insurance has been part of my life for as long as I can remember. My grandfather, father, and uncle all built careers in the industry, and that family legacy inspired me to follow the same path. I joined State Farm as a team member in June 2019 and opened my own agency in August 2021. Today, I’m proud to work with an incredible team serving our Good Neighbors throughout Owings Mills, Reisterstown, Towson, Rosedale, Baltimore, Finksburg, and the greater Baltimore area.

Since opening my agency, we’ve qualified for State Farm Honor Club and Ambassador Club every year, recognition that reflects our commitment to building relationships, providing dependable service, and helping customers make informed decisions about their coverage. We care deeply about our local community and enjoy staying connected through community events and opportunities to support our neighbors.

Conveniently located in Owings Mills in the Dolfield Office Park off Red Run Boulevard, our office offers a welcoming environment where customers can stop by and discuss their insurance needs. We also offer virtual appointments and can assist customers in English, Spanish, and Russian. As a proud pet owner of two rescue cats, Sheryl and Lani, it’s only natural that our office is pet-friendly and welcomes fellow animal lovers.

Whether you’re looking for Auto Insurance for your daily commute, Homeowners Insurance to help protect where you live, Renters Insurance for your first apartment, or Life Insurance as you prepare for the future, we take the time to walk through your options and help you build a customized approach that fits your needs. We also assist with Business Insurance, health insurance, and pet insurance, making it easier to manage your coverage in one place. Licensed in Maryland, Delaware, Pennsylvania, and Virginia, we’re here to support individuals, families, and business owners through every stage of life.

Before opening my agency, I earned my Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from Towson University. Outside the office, I enjoy traveling with my wife, Tamera, who has worked in the agency part-time since we married in 2023, spending time with family, playing music with my local rock and roll cover band, and watching sports. We share our home with our rescue cats, Sheryl and Lani, while Tamera volunteers with a horse rescue organization in Carroll County.

Since moving to Baltimore in 2010, building meaningful relationships throughout this community has been one of the most rewarding parts of my career, and I’m grateful for the opportunity to help protect what matters most to our neighbors.
