Insurance Agents

My name is Alexander McFarland, a licensed insurance agent for AAA Schuylkill County. I live in Pottsville and work at our branch office here. I was born in Forest Grove, Oregon and moved to Pennsylvania in 2013. I am married to a Pottsville girl, born and raised, and together we have three beautiful children.I became an insurance agent after I was no longer able to continue my previous line of work for health reasons. I enrolled in a course through Kaplan Financial, earning my Property and Casualty license in 2024. I am always pursuing new education and learning opportunities, both to better understand our many insurance products, and to better educate our insureds on their policies and coverages. Please feel free to contact me with any questions regarding what coverages we offer. We are always glad to speak with and assist you! @

I am a South Jersey native who migrated to the Lehigh Valley to attend Moravian College, and after graduating never looked back. @ I have worked in insurance since 2013 but am delighted to have made the move to AAA Northampton County as of October 2020. Over the years I’ve enjoyed decoding insurance for my clients, so that they understand their coverage options and feel confident in their choices, and I’ll do the same for you. @ When I’m not in the office, you’ll find me working with my Girl Scout troop, reading, knitting, photographing, or spending time with my husband and our cats. @

My Name is Melissa Shipton. I am a Licensed Insurance agent here in our AAA Schuylkill County Pottsville office. I was born in Sellersville PA, located in the Bucks County area. My family and I relocated to Schuylkill County/Pottsville in 1988 and I have resided here since. I attended Pottsville High and enjoyed various clubs one being the Key Club where we would deliver meals on wheels to the elderly who could no longer shop for their groceries. Choir was also another favorite of mine. I LOVE spending time and getting together with my family (especially my nanny) and friends. I have (4) best girlfriends (Jocelyn, Amanda, Shanelle, and Jen) who have always been my backbone. I am married to a wonderful guy (Aaron) and have three beautiful daughters (Kalea and Dayla) and a step-daughter (Alexis). I had worked in a local Italian restaurant for 15 years and decided to take a different career path in my 30’s. I was hired at AAA in Customer Service where I began my Insurance journey in 2021. In 2023 I became a licensed agent and continue to learn and grow in the world of Insurance. Becoming an agent has been a huge accomplishment for me and I look forward to what the future holds.@
