MEET OUR TEAM
Wes Williamson
CEO + Founder
Wes spent most of his life as a “preacher’s kid” in Brandon, MS before moving to Hendersonville, TN as an adult. He pursued his childhood passion by playing two years of basketball at William Carey University before transferring to Mississippi State University (Go Dawgs!) to enroll in their Risk Management, Financial Planning, and Insurance program. While at State, he met his future wife, Megan. Megan was on the Dance Team, and those connections led to the opportunity for Wes to be the school’s “Bully” mascot. After college, Wes learned the insurance industry through several positions with several companies. He eventually opened his own State Farm agency in 2016, but quickly realized he wanted to provide the options and services an independent agency can offer. Wes and Megan have two children: “Princess” Layla and “All-Boy” Jett. Raising Layla and Jett to be confident, successful, Christian people is one of the most important things in Wes’s life. When time permits, he enjoys going to games in Starkville, playing basketball, playing golf, and woodworking. Wes would love to get to know you, so let’s get started!
Blair Williamson
COO + Co-Owner
Blair has brought more clients to this agency than anyone else – even more than his brother, Wes. A lifelong resident of Brandon, MS, Blair seems to know everyone in town. He has always loved basketball and Mississippi State. After graduating from East Rankin Academy, he attended Mississippi State University and was a proud member of Phi Delta Theta. Following graduation in 2011, he held multiple positions within the financial and insurance industries. After several successful years with Alfa Insurance, he joined the Williamson I&I team. He quickly exceeded every production goal, and he takes pride in the attention to detail he provides for each client. In 2022, Blair became co-owner of this agency and was named Chief Operating Officer. Blair runs our Central Mississippi office, and he does a great job managing his COO responsibilities while continuing to bring in new clients. When he’s not working, he enjoys traveling, tennis, following Mississippi State athletics, and he can still outshoot anyone on the basketball court. Blair’s clients love him, so let’s see what he can do for you!
Stephen Sanders
Agent
Outside of his time as an MLRS at 1st Battalion, 94th Field Artillery Regiment, Stephen has been a lifelong resident of Springfield and Hendersonville. When Stephen was voted “Best Insurance Agent” by the Hendersonville community, we knew we wanted him to be a part of our team. After seeing the value he could provide as an independent agent, he made the move from his captive agency. Stephen is heavily involved in the community, so you’re likely to find him anywhere he can see old friends or make new friends. He has been married to Lydia for 16+ years, and he loves being a “Girl Dad” to his teenage daughter, Caroline. If you want to know what type of agent Stephen is, our reviews on Google and Facebook will tell the story! Outside of his family and friends, his love runs deeply for the V-O-L-S! Go big orange!
Blake Shelby
Agent
Blake has been a valuable part of Williamson Insurance & Investments since 2019. He brought several years of experience as an insurance agent and customer service representative to our team. Blake has been in the Nashville area for 15+ years, having previously spent time in Memphis, Chattanooga, and his hometown of Brandon, MS. Blake is a professionally trained cook, and he loves to go “all out” on his weekend culinary adventures. He “married up” in 2016 to his better half, Katie. After a phone call with Blake, you’ll feel as though you’ve been friends for years. Contact Blake if you need a friend in the insurance business!
