Kristie Powell

I am a born and raised San Diego native, with 25 years' experience as a State Farm agent. Prior to starting my agency in 2000, I worked for State Farm as a fire claims adjuster. I have been passionate about State Farm and our customers for almost 35 years now, and it only continues to grow every day. Previously to starting with State Farm, I graduated from SDSU with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. I'm currently a member of the Chamber of Commerce and served on the board for 9 years. I love what I do, and my community. I am very fortunate to have the opportunity to help people protect what matters to them most.

Welcome to April 2025! As we step into this vibrant month, we embrace the full arrival of spring in the Northern Hemisphere. April is often celebrated for its blossoming flowers, longer days, and the warming temperatures that signify renewal and growth. This month is also notable for Spring Break, a time when students and families take a break from their routines to enjoy vacations and outdoor adventures, making the most of the beautiful weather.

April is a month filled with various celebrations and observances, including Earth Day on April 22, which encourages us to appreciate and protect our planet. As nature comes alive, communities engage in outdoor activities such as gardening, hiking, and sports, reveling in the joy of the season. The weather in April can be unpredictable, often characterized by the saying "April showers bring May flowers," reminding us of the essential role of rain in nurturing the earth. Embrace the beauty of April and all the opportunities it brings for exploration and enjoyment!
