Donovan Hawkes

My name is Geof, I was born in the Mojave Desert, where I lived for half of my life. I moved to South Bend at 13. I graduated from Clay High in 2011, and attended college in my home town of Lancaster at AVC: during which time I received a county commendation from the county of Los Angeles for work with a charitable organization. I have been working in the insurance industry for just under a year, and I love being able to help people meet their long term and short term goals. I am a licensed Insurance Representative for Auto Insurance, Fire Insurance, Life Insurance, and Health Insurance products. I also am a Licensed State Farm Bank Representative.  I focus on helping customers with their life insurance needs.

My name is Ivanelys, and to make it easier Iva is what I go by. I am an Office Associate here. I have completed my certification for Leadership and Management. I was born in Puerto Rico and have two beautiful girls and a fiance. I enjoy going out with my family very much on the weekends. My goal here is to assist you with your insurance coverages as much as possible and making sure the process goes smoothly for you. I look forward to talking to you.

My name is Ellen Lavelle. I moved to South Bend two years ago from Cleveland. I recently graduated from St. Joseph High School and plan to attend Notre Dame in the fall. I love to spend my free time going for runs and watching movies. I really enjoy working in the insurance industry. I have my property and casualty license and hope to get my life and health license soon. Until then, I'll be focusing in auto and home insurance. I cannot wait to help all of the Donovan Hawkes State Farm customers.

I am blessed to have 3 beautiful girls and have been married to my wife since May 2015! We love the park, board games, water activities, and tickle fights. During college football, you can find me rooting on ND while my wife roots for U of M. My ideal vacation is going to the mountains and being with nature. Before joining the team here, I focused on Life and Health and would love to have a conversation with you on why it is so important! I look forward to getting to know you.

I grew up in the Flint area in Michigan. In high school, I played soccer and was active in church. I recently just graduated from college this past May from Olivet Nazarene University. I was a RA for two years and spent a lot of my time climbing the rock wall. I enjoy running and hiking. I also really enjoy craft coffee, and even started roasting my own beans. This fall I am starting my MBA in finance at LSU. I am excited to get to know you and service your needs.
