Meet Our Team

Steve Marsh
Agency Owner

Ten years ago, I was in a really, bad car accident that was my fault. Because of this, I was being sued for $78K. Until then, in my mind, insurance had just been another bill to pay; however, when the suit was settled, and my insurance covered the expenses, I realized how important it was. Two years after that accident, I began my career helping people protect themselves from the unexpected. My team and I are passionate about properly protecting the assets of our insureds and their businesses, as well as delivering 5 Star service. While it may sound cliche, I really enjoy helping people. This business gives us the opportunity to give back to our community, and donate time and money to those who need it.

Our agency is grateful to have a long-standing relationship with an amazing non-profit, Kares 4 Kids. Since 2005, they have helped over 53,000 children in need from our local community. We also support local schools, 5K events, and other charitable organizations within our community. I am also excited to see how else we can make a difference for our community.

My parents raised my brother and I in a home on Lake Lanier in Flowery Branch, so fishing and boating have always been a part of my life. When I moved to Athens for college, I loved living in a place filled with music, because I really enjoy playing the guitar. My love for the Bulldogs grew during my time at the University of Georgia, where I earned a Bachelors in Economics and a minor in Spanish. After college, I bought a home in Dacula and married my beautiful wife, Amanda. In our spare time, my wife and I love: traveling, eating at local restaurants, going to concerts, cheering at football games, playing with our dogs Charlie and Pippi, and spending time with friends and family.

Tim Emmett
Sales Agent

I have been an insurance agent since 2007. I enjoy helping people plan ahead to weather life’s storms.

I grew up in Oakwood, GA, and have lived in Georgia my entire life. I love cooking on my Big Green Egg and hanging out with my wife, Melanie. In my free time, I also like to brew beer.

I am a member of the Georgia House Rabbit Society, and am looking forward to making a difference for the people around us.

Melanie Emmett
Office Manager

I came on board with the agency in 2014, and became licensed in Personal and Commercial insurance. I enjoy helping our members with policy changes, payments, and annual reviews. I’m having a great work day when I know I’ve made a member’s day easier, better, or just brought them a smile!

I am originally from Sandusky, Ohio, but grew up in Marietta, Georgia. I attended UGA, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in theatre. Go Dawgs! Nowadays, I enjoy spending time with family, watching a good movie or TV series, and being bossed around by my 5 lbs pet bunny, Tillie. In my free time, you might catch me at the gym, checking out a local brewery, watching one of my college football teams, or out on Lake Lanier. I get my love of baking from my grandmothers. My favorite thing to make are banana bread, pineapple upside down cake, and cut out cookies.

As a member of the non-profit organization, Georgia House Rabbit Society, I am passionate about spreading awareness for proper rabbit care and ownership.
