Blake Ettestad

Blake began his tenure with State Farm in 2012 as a Claims Representative, helping customers through the claim-handling process. After moving up the ladder in claims operations, Blake became an Agency Field Specialist. For the next three years in that role, Blake supported over 100 State Farm agents with the implementation of tools, technology, and processes to provide State Farm customers with an industry-leading experience. In 2017, Blake’s passion for great service led him to lead his own agency in Bend, Oregon. At that juncture, he had the pleasure of stepping into the shoes of a retiring agent with a similar commitment to service and people, Tim Proctor. Since then, Blake and his team have had the pleasure of providing insurance and financial products to those in our great Central Oregon community. Above all though, Blake’s greatest accomplishment though was to marring his wife, Faith in 2012. Since then they have been blessed with five children that they enjoy exploring the Pacific Northwest with.
