Tanner Sprinkel

Happy Fall from Tanner Sprinkel State Farm Agency! As the leaves change and the weather cools, it's the perfect time to reflect on the importance of life insurance. Did you know that September is Life Insurance Awareness Month? This special month is dedicated to raising awareness about the significance of life insurance and how it can bring peace and security to your life.

I was born and raised in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, specifically Carrollton-Farmers Branch where I graduated from Newman Smith High School in 2007. I attended Navarro Junior College where I met my future wife, Mollie. After a few years at Navarro and Stephen F. Austin, I started working as an Account Rep for an industrial supply company in Arlington. In February of 2013 when Chris Kyle, the Navy SEAL was killed, I felt a higher calling and a desire to serve others and I left for boot camp for the Marine Corps in March of 2014. I did one deployment with the Marine Corps Security Forces Fleet Anti-Terrorism Unit in 2016 where I supported NATO operations during Operation Inherent Resolve. I then did a 2nd Deployment with 1st Battalion, 8th Marines in 2018 as part of bi-lateral training and contingency operations with our Pacific Allies. During my time in the Marine Corps I achieved the rank of Staff Sergeant and was awarded the Global War on Terrorism Expeditionary Medal, multiple Good Conduct Medals, and multiple Meritorious Promotion awards and was awarded for leadership by the Commanding General of the 4th Marine Division. I earned several qualifications as an infantryman including completion of the Advanced Urban Combat Course, Designated Marksman Course, Combat Marksmanship Coach’s Course, Tactical Combat Casualty Care, Advanced Infantryman Course, and the Marine Corps Leadership Course for Sergeants.

Mollie and I got married in the fall of 2015 and she supported me as I furthered my career in the Marines. When I left Active Duty in April of 2019, I had already interviewed with a State Farm Sales Leader to become a part of the Agent Aspirant Program where I was mentored by my father-in-law, Randy Reeves, a 3rd-generation State Farm Agent who celebrated his 40th year with State Farm in 2023. We moved from Jacksonville, North Carolina to the Tomball area in March of 2019. In June of 2019, Mollie and I were blessed with our first child, Colt, who loves to come hang out at the office and play outdoors. I spent 3-1/2 years in the Randy Reeves Agency in Spring and then interviewed for the opportunity to open my own State Farm Agency in Cypress, Texas in the fall of 2022. I am thrilled to be a part of this rapidly growing community. I look forward to serving the Cypress area for their home, auto, and life insurance, as well as their financial services needs. We even provide insurance for small business owners! I have established a confident, and energetic team to help serve our Texas customers.
