Hi, I’m Alana Billings. I was born and raised in Grant County and graduated from Madison-Grant High School in 2017. I stayed close to home for college, earning my Bachelor of Science from IU Kokomo in 2020. After working in banking and financial services, I returned to IU Kokomo and completed my MBA in 2023.

As November arrives and we look ahead to the holidays, life often gets a little busier. Between changing weather, travel plans, and time spent with family, it’s a good season to pause and make sure the things that matter most are protected. My background in finance has taught me the value of planning ahead, and I’m here to help families and local businesses feel prepared for the unexpected.

Family means everything to me. My husband, Austin, and I have been together since high school, and we’re raising our daughter, Myla, who is now 2. Austin owns a local business, so we understand firsthand the joys and challenges of building a life and business in our community. During the holidays, I especially cherish the chance to slow down and make memories together.

Opening this agency is my way of giving back and supporting the people I serve. Whether you’re getting ready for winter, traveling to visit loved ones, or preparing to host family and friends, I’m here to help protect your home, family, and business through the season ahead.

November and Holiday Season Reminders

• Prepare for colder weather: Check your heating system, replace furnace filters, and make sure outdoor hoses are disconnected before freezing temperatures arrive.

• Get ready for winter weather: Keep an eye on forecasts and consider preparing an emergency kit for your home and vehicle.

• Travel safely: If you’re visiting family, check road conditions, allow extra travel time, and make sure your home is secure before leaving.

• Take care in the kitchen: Holiday cooking can increase the risk of kitchen fires, so keep an eye on the stove and keep flammable items away from heat.

• Review your coverage: A quick check-in can help ensure your insurance still fits your home, vehicle, family, and business needs.

Thanks for stopping by. I’d love to get to know you and help with your insurance needs as we head into November and the holiday season. I hope you and your family enjoy a safe, warm, and memorable time together.
