Thank you for visiting my page! My name is Elvin Taylor, and I’m the Agency Owner of Elvin Taylor State Farm. I’m proud to call Olive Branch, MS. home and even prouder to be a graduate of the University of Memphis—Go Tigers! I’m a husband to my beautiful wife Tiffany and we have four amazing kids, Kyla, Mike, Taylor, and Khai, who keep me on my toes and remind me every day why family matters. Outside the office, you’ll usually find me staying active, enjoying great music, and following the game I’ve loved since I was young—basketball is a big part of who I am, just like Memphis itself. And yes... Go Tigers—again! Giving back to Memphis has always been close to my heart. I founded the Jarmelle Jones Memorial Scholarship Fund at the University of Memphis to help support students pursuing higher education. I also launched Operation Give Back, a feeding and clothing initiative that has provided food and clothing to hundreds of individuals in the local homeless community since 2015. Each year, our agency hosts “Lunch With Scholars,” partnering with an inner‐city Memphis high school to celebrate graduating honor students with a pizza and cake party and encourage them as they take their next steps.

I’ve also had the opportunity to speak at motivational engagements across the city and state, sharing my testimony and encouraging others to face life’s challenges head‐on. On top of that, our agency has sponsored multiple youth league sports teams throughout Memphis. Helping others isn’t just something I do—it’s a core part of my purpose. I’ve been a State Farm Agent since March 1, 2016, and from day one, my focus has been on putting policyholder needs first. Our motto is simple: Do unto the customer as you would your own mother. We’ve built a true family atmosphere here, and that mindset carries through every conversation we have.

Whether someone is preparing for Auto Insurance to protect what gets them where they need to go, Homeowners Insurance to safeguard the place they gather with loved ones, or Life Insurance to help protect their family’s future, my team and I take the time to understand what matters most. Our office is conveniently located at 2725 Kirby Rd., Suite 11 B in Memphis, TN, and we proudly serve customers across Memphis, Bartlett, Collierville, Lakeland, Arlington, Germantown, Piperton, Olive Branch, Southaven, and West Memphis. If you’re interested in choosing to bundle Auto Insurance and Home Insurance, or if you’d like to explore options for Life Insurance and paycheck protection, my dedicated team and I would love to connect and welcome you into our agency family—give us a call or stop by anytime.
