State Farm® Insurance Agent Paul Walden

I was born and grew up in a small town outside Bloomington, IL, funny enough where headquarters of State Farm is, named Monticello, IL.   Growing up in a small farm town was priceless, as that is where I learned the skills of how to interact with the full spectrum of people, from farmers all the way to millionaire doctors.

I graduated college from CU Boulder, and am ecstatic to be back! GO BUFFS!  After college, I spent a little time down at University of Florida performing as an athletic trainer for the school.  Shortly after, Colorado was where I needed to be, so I packed up all my belongings in my car and never looked back!

For five years, I worked in the Oil in gas field, learning mineral title along with probate and lease buying, traveling around the nation to these small farm towns, which felt just like being home in Illinois. 

Not seeing anywhere to grow within that business, I moved careers and formed my own real estate team, quickly becoming one of the top 5% real estate agents in the nation in Denver.  Real estate was one of my most valuable experiences I could have asked for, as I met my wife, Laura, within that career!  Laura and I grew quickly to become inseparable and loved every minute working together.  We were married Oct 22, 2019, and the rest is history in the making!

Growing tired of working in real estate and the ease of it, I was introduced to State Farm through a family friend, funny enough, who was from Illinois.  Learning from some of the most accomplished agents in the nation, I aspired to follow their footsteps.

Fast-forward to now, I am working hand in hand with my with my amazing wife, which now we have two children, Jack and Everly, helping as many families as we can through State Farm!
