Zach Knight

Welcome to Zachary Knight State Farm! Since the 1st of January 2021, I have been growing my own agency through excellent service to my current and prospective customers. My agency is in Montgomery, AL, on the east side of Montgomery, just south of route 85. My wife, my brother, and I moved from the Mississippi Gulf Coast to take this opportunity with State Farm, and we all agree it was meant to be. I look forward to being your trusted insurance professional for your auto insurance, homeowners’ insurance, life insurance and health insurance. We also do Small Business Insurance - All of which is done with a commitment to excellence.

Common service areas include Pike Road, East Chase, Wynn Lakes, River Region, Wetumpka, Prattville, and Millbrook. I’m also licensed in the great state of Mississippi.

About Zach: I grew up in Pascagoula, Mississippi with two of the most loving and caring parents and my awesome younger brother. My brother and I grew up loving adventurous hobbies. I had a passion for combat sports (Boxing, Brazilian ju-jitsu, Karate, and Muay Thai to name a few) and deep-sea fishing. I credit my dad for 2 world records I caught; they were the largest fish of a species caught; Jack Crevalle and Rainbow Runner.

Through high school and college, I led a successful career obtaining back-to-back titles as the Mississippi State Champion in both fighting and kata forms from 2008-2012. In 2011, I competed on a national level around the US and won a national title fighting in the North America Sport Karate Association (NASKA). My career ended soon after, when I broke my neck diving into a pool and ended my career and stardom as a fighter. I was blessed to not be paralyzed that day.

I graduated from a university local to the state of Mississippi with Bachelor of Science degree in psychology. Soon after graduation, I proposed to my High School sweetheart, whom I met in 9th grade and dated all this time. For a few years after graduating, I worked at a refinery, until I realized I wanted more out of life and became a State Farm Aspirant.

While working as an Agent Aspirant with State Farm in March of 2019, I almost lost my life in a car accident. I rolled my car 5 times, breaking my face in 13 places and my arm in over 40 locations. It was in this dire state that I realized my purpose on this Earth. In the moment of facing so much pain and my mortality, I understood my passion for helping others was my calling. Even with my mouth wired shut from a broken jaw, I helped more customers than ever before.

My team and I don't just give you a policy, I give you the promise that my office, the industry leader, and myself have your back. We seek to put the Good in Neighbor and be a valuable contributor to our community and its growth.
