    Clark Harrell

    Personal Lines Agent

    I was born and raised near Greenville, NC. I enjoyed all sports during my childhood and excelled at Baseball. Upon my graduation from High School, I spent my last summer on the tobacco farm and joined the US Army for a two-year enlistment. I found a home there and retired after 20 years of service in 2005. I was a paratrooper for nearly 8 years of my career and was a member of the world famous 82nd Airborne Division twice. I became involved in the Junior ROTC programs while teaching Senior ROTC at the University of Nevada, Reno. I moved to Phoenix, AZ and taught High School JROTC for nearly 7 years. While living in Arizona, I attended and graduated from Arizona State University with a Bachelor of Liberal Studies. I made the decision to move back to North Carolina to be closer to family in February 2018 and stumbled on a position with a successful Insurance Company at Carolina Beach where I stayed for a year. I was afforded this opportunity in February 2020 and I am very excited to be a part of Charlotte Insurance going forward. I hope to become a valued member of the team. I have been doing insurance for just under two years, so I look forward to the support of this great team to help make Charlotte Insurance even more successful than it is now. I currently live in Wilmington, NC with my Doberman Pinscher “Taz” and my favorite hobbies are fishing and golf.
