Swallows Insurance appoints Cardoza as account executive

COOKEVILLE – Swallows Insurance announced that Jerred Cardoza joined the agency as an account executive. Cardoza and his family recently moved to Tennessee from Lemoore, Calif. He is a graduate of California State University, Fresno. 

Cardoza earned his Property and Casualty Insurance license in 2016 and has enjoyed working in the insurance industry. Life and health insurance was his first focus, but he gradually made farm, agriculture and agribusiness insurance his specialty. Cardoza recently obtained his AFIS certification (Agribusiness and Farm Insurance Specialist). He is one of seven in the entire state of Tennessee with this designation. 

Matt Swallows, president of Swallows Insurance said, “With Jerred’s work ethic, integrity and background in the insurance and farming industries, it made Jerred a perfect fit for the Swallows Insurance team. We are lucky to have him as part of our family.” 

Cardoza will be based in the Cookeville office and can be reached at 931-526-4025 or via email at jcardoza@swallowsinsurance.com. He looks forward to working with clients to protect their personal or commercial insurance needs, including hobby farming or commercial agribusiness. 

Cardoza has worked in the agriculture industry nearly all of his life. His upbringing included working on his family farm in California. He has been married to his wife, Shaunie, for four years, and they have a beautiful 10-month-old daughter, Navy Grace. He enjoys being outdoors, working out, hunting and spending time with his wife and family.
