Don Layson, CIC

President

"Chief Cook & Bottle Washer", aka President of Calrose insurance. Don began his career in the insurance industry in 1985 as an agent for an organization that gave him experience in both personal & commercial lines of insurance. As a managing partner, he wrote small person accounts and large multi-location commercial accounts. Don purchased Driver's World Insurance in 2012 which became Calrose Insurance in 2018. In Don's free time his priorities are his faith, family and music. He and his son share a enthusiasm for the guitar and have each built their own instruments. When he is not playing in his worship band at church, you will find him on his tractor working on a "honey-do list", watching "scary movies" with his daughter, or "exercising self control" on the golf course. When on vacation you will find Don in Hawaii, he got hooked on his honeymoon.

Katie Larson

Agent

Katie began her insurance career as a administrative assistant in 2002. She became a licensed servicing agent in 2003 for an organization that specialized in high risk insurance. She has been working with Calrose insurance since its inception in 2012 and has expanded her knowledge and expertise to the preferred market. In her free-time when Katie is not being "mom" to her 2 daughters, she is riding on the back of her husband's Harley, lifting weights at the gym, or exhausting her excess energy in on the softball field. Las Vegas is her favorite vacation destination and "Crock-pot" meals are the best.

Matt Layson

Agent

I'm here to help people make good decisions. Especially when it comes to insurance I have an advantage coming from a long line of insurance professionals going as far back as my great grandfather. I want to use that background and my continual pursuit of learning to help people deal with a product, service, and industry that's often misunderstood.

A little bit about myself I love music, coffee, video games, and working out. Me and my wife recently moved Marysville with our dog Hazel. I'm happy to talk to anyone about almost anything so send me an email and let's grab coffee.

Ashley Baker

Agent

Ashley began her insurance career in 2012 working for a local Allstate agency in all personal insurance. In July of 2019 she joined Calrose to be a little closer to home and we're happy she did. Her approach to educating clients on a one-on-one basis fits perfectly with our values. When she's not working she's outside! Momming a couple of fur babies, making things grow in the garden, hiking and camping whenever the whether permits are all Ashley's favorite past times.

Debbie Layson

Administration

Debbie started out working for her dad at his insurance office when she was 16, filing, typing addresses on envelopes and answering the phone on Saturdays. Insurance is in her family DNA. After graduating she worked in the dental industry for most of her working years. When kids arrived, she stayed home to be with them and homeschooled.

When Calrose Insurance grew her husband Don, brought her back to work. Now she's doing similar things she did when she was 16, managing forms, mailings, updating licenses, data entry, and working with companies on the administration of the business. She enjoys watching her husband and son work together and learn from each other.

In the off hours much of her time is still spent outside, working in the yard, improving their home, reading, and spending time with family.
