Joe Freund

My name is Sasha Viney and I moved to San Francisco from Sydney, Australia. I chose this amazing city for it's culture, diversity and vibrant energy. I have over 20 years of customer service experience and felt it was a great step moving into my role as Account Manager for Joe's team as I love interacting with people and helping make sure their needs are met.

Since 2005, I have had the pleasure of working with some pretty fantastic California State Farm Agents and their Team members, more specifically here in San Francisco since 2007. As we navigated through a recession and a pandemic together, I can't think of a more solid company to represent than State Farm. Helping people understand how we are able to help protect their assets, their future and their families has been extremely rewarding.

One of my passions has always been to help people. I have worked in Customer Service for over ten years, which, fortunately, even led me to travel the globe for work. Settling back to San Francisco, I was searching for a job that allowed me to continue to assist people. I have definitely found that working for Joe, this team truly cares about ensuring the customers' needs are always fulfilled.

I’m a San Francisco native and I have 14 years of property and casualty insurance experience with State Farm. My passion for helping people navigate through their insurance needs has grown over the years, and I’m committed to providing great service to our valued customers. Beyond the insurance world, I have a range of interests that keep me energized and engaged. In my downtime, you can often find my wife and me trail running, watching movies, attending concerts, and cheering for our favorite Bay Area sports teams. My curious mind also enjoys solving complex Rubik’s Cube-type puzzles, which offer a great mental challenge, but also give me a feeling of relaxation and calmness.

Born and raised right here in the Bay Area. I've worked in the insurance industry for over 20 years, the last few years being with Joe's agency. I take pride in assisting State Farm customers with their insurance needs. In my spare time, I enjoy partaking in the many things the Bay Area has to offer with my husband and daughter.

I have resided in the Bay Area for about 13 years now, but I was born and raised in St. Louis, MO. For most of my professional life I have specialized in customer relations and customer support as I have a passion for problem solving and assisting others with their problems. In my free time I enjoy sports and working out as well as spending time outdoors with my dog and friends. I am happy to help you with any questions you may have concerning your insurance needs!
