Jessup Standifer

Agency Owner


I’ve been with Standifer Insurance Group since 2000 and have worn many hats in the company. My tenure and experience has allowed me to not only understand the ins-and-outs of insurance, but also to service hundreds of families regarding their protection needs. I can help you protect the things that are important – your family, home, car, boat and more.


As a small business owner, I understand the importance of building a solid foundation for the future and developing long-lasting customer relationships. That’s why I’m committed to offering you the same level of service I’d expect from my own business dealings. When you leave my office, I hope you’ll feel confident, informed, assured and satisfied in your choices. The way you should feel.

Director of Operations

Hello, My name is Myrna, I have been with The Standifer Insurance Group since 2011. I feel like I have been in the insurance world my entire life; because my father and brothers have all sold insurance at one time or another, so it was just a natural transition into my second career, once my 2 children graduated from High School. Even though I wear many hats here at the agency which I truly enjoy, one of my main goals stays the same: to help our customers make sure their insurance needs are met and they are completely satisfied with our services. I have 3 standard poodles: Abby, Bear, and Jackie – who I say are my, “4 legged children that don’t talk back” and their little side kick, Smudge our orange rescue cat. My favorite vacation place is anywhere at the beach and my dream is to travel to Thailand and Italy, hopefully within the next 5 years. If at any time you are not completely satisfied with our agency, please contact me directly so I can help you get the situation taken care of.Director of Operations

Doug Stevenson

Licensed Inside Sales Agent


Email: dstevenson1@allstate.com


I grew up in the suburbs of Boston, Massachusetts. When I was 19, I joined the United States Army. I've been in the insurance business for about two years now. What excites me about an insurance career, compared to some of the other jobs I've had, is that what I'm doing matters. The services and products I provide help protect what is important to people in their times of need, and if I end up saving them some money along the way, that's even better. 

When I'm not working, you might find me playing cards with my friends or in the backyard grilling. For all your business insurance needs, give me a call today at 205-664-3200.

Tim Youngblood

Licensed Sales Producer


Email: tyoungblood@allstate.com


I have been in the insurance industry for over 26 years, and nothing makes me happier than helping clients save money or guiding them through a new home or auto purchase. I take pride in finding the right solutions and making the process as smooth as possible.


I grew up in the Pell City area and now live in Trussville. I’m a huge Auburn Tigers fan and love all things water sports. When I’m not working, you can usually find me out on Logan Martin Lake cruising on my pontoon boat.


Faith is an important part of my life, and I truly enjoy building relationships with my clients and helping them navigate their insurance needs. I also have a French Bulldog named Riley, who keeps life entertaining!


Kyrstin Williams


Email: kwilliams76@allstate.com


Hi, I’m Kyrstin! Originally from Kentucky, I’ve made my home in Alabama, where I’m excited to start my journey in the insurance industry. While I’m new to insurance, I have years of experience helping customers and guests, and I take pride in providing excellent service. My goal is to be someone our customers can trust and rely on, especially in times of need.


Outside of work, I’m an animal lover through and through—I have four fur-babies (three cats and a yellow lab mix) who mean the absolute world to me. I also have a deep appreciation for art, whether it’s painting, visiting the Birmingham Museum of Art, or simply taking in creative works. On the weekends, you’ll likely find me at home, relaxing with a good movie or TV show.


I’m looking forward to connecting with you and being part of your insurance journey!



Joey Carrigan

Property and Casualty Sales Agent


Email: jcarrigan@allstate.com


I was born in Jackson, Mississippi, but grew up in Helena, Alabama. I joined Standifer Insurance Group in September 2024, bringing experience in auto claims, employee benefits, life insurance, and personal lines property and casualty.


What excites me most about my role is that no two customers are the same—I love getting to know people and providing custom-tailored insurance solutions to fit their needs.


Outside of work, my world revolves around my wife, our two Golden Retrievers, and our soon-to-arrive baby girl—I can’t wait to become a dad! I’m also an avid sports fan, cheering for the Alabama Crimson Tide, Atlanta Braves, Liverpool FC, New Orleans Saints, and Colorado Avalanche.


A little-known fact about me? I’m one belt away from earning my black belt in taekwondo—a goal I’ve been working toward for three years!


When I’m not at work, you’ll likely find me grilling out, enjoying live music, working out at the Greystone YMCA, spending time outdoors, or at church.
