Justus Jacobs

Justus obtained his B.S. degree in Business Finance from the University of Wyoming in 2008. After obtaining his degree, he and his wife moved to San Diego, California. There he gained experience in the banking industry and commercial insurance industry, obtaining his insurance license in 2009. Justus also obtained experience in the oil field, working as a rough-neck for several years in North Dakota, Wyoming, and Colorado. After Justus’s wife, Taylor, completed her Master’s Degree the two left San Diego and moved to Fort Collins, CO and then Cheyenne, WY. While in Cheyenne, Justus went to work for the State of Wyoming as a gas and oil auditor. In 2015 an opportunity for Justus to move back to his home town, Lander, WY as a commercial loan officer was presented. Justus grew up on a small cattle ranch outside of town and he and his wife were eager to have their family have the same experiences growing up as he did. Although Justus was very happy with his position as a loan officer he always envisioned himself as a business owner and in 2016 the opportunity to work for State Farm was presented to him. Justus knew the decision to work for a solid and reputable agency like State Farm was one he couldn’t pass up. Justus has a variety of passions and hobbies; he obtained his private pilot’s license at the age of 17. In 2004 he attended horseshoeing school in Oklahoma becoming a ferrier, which paid for his college. He and his family are active in their church and like to spend as much time outside as possible. They enjoy snowmobiling, hunting, fishing and attending his boys’ activities and events. Justus has 3 sons; 9 years old, 4 years old, and 3 years. His wife Taylor is a School Psychologist and a Behavior Analyst. Justus is also involved in his community; a member of Kiwanis, a Lander Chamber Ambassador, and the vice chair of the Lander Community Foundation.
