Skylar Johnson
Licensed Agent
Skylar brings five years of hands-on insurance industry experience and a solid foundation built on over a decade in customer service. I’m passionate about making sure our clients feel supported, informed, and confident—whether they’re navigating a policy change or tackling the unexpected. I thrive on the ever-evolving nature of insurance. Every day brings an opportunity to learn something new and grow professionally, and I genuinely enjoy rising to the challenge. Outside of the office, I’m a proud Buckeye Central graduate, an avid gardener, and a lover of all things outdoors—from hunting and canning to soaking up sunshine with my family. I have always had a passion for softball. With playing for 14 years, I now get to share my knowledge and experience as a coach in my home town. I’m one of six siblings and an aunt to ten energetic nieces and nephews, so “quiet time” is more of a myth than a reality in my world! At home, I’m mom to a spirited two-year-old boy, and we spend as much time as possible outside with his dad—grilling, laughing, and making the most of the sunshine. Life is full, busy, and beautiful, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.
