Claire D Justo

Welcome to the Claire D Justo State Farm Insurance and Financial Services Agency!

Our office is proud to serve the Hilo community and all Hawaiian Islands, including the Big Island, Maui, Oahu, Lanai, Molokai, and Kauai. You'll find us conveniently located in the Puainako Town Center—next to Rent-A-Center, O’Reilly Auto Parts, and right behind McDonald’s.

I was born and raised in the Philippines and moved to Hawaii in 2009 to begin a new life. My husband, Dushten, and I are the proud parents of our son, Aiden. Hilo has been our beloved home since 2012 for me, and my husband has called this community home since the 1980s, so our roots here run deep.

My educational background includes studies in Tourism at the University of Baguio and Political Science at Northwestern University, both in the Philippines. While my path led me away from those fields, it brought me to where I am today: passionate about helping families protect what matters most and build a secure financial future. This commitment drives how we help individuals and businesses find appropriate coverage, from auto and home insurance to life policies and business protection.

I’ve had the privilege of working under the guidance of four exceptional State Farm agents over the past 14 years. Their mentorship helped shape me both professionally and personally, and I carry their lessons with me as I now lead my own agency with integrity, compassion, and confidence.

My personal journey deeply informs my professional dedication. Losing my father at the age of 10 taught me early on the importance of family and financial protection. Raised by a close-knit, loving family, I developed a strong commitment to helping others safeguard what matters most. That unwavering commitment is the heart of our work at this agency.

When I’m not at the office, you’ll often find my family at the baseball field—cheering on Aiden, volunteering, and connecting with fellow parents in the community. I also enjoy reading legal thrillers by John Grisham and David Baldacci, watching Korean dramas, cooking, hiking, and traveling for baseball tournaments.

I invite you to meet my amazing team— Charles, Jenise and Vergil— professionals dedicated to helping you make informed decisions about your insurance and financial needs. We are also happy to assist you in Tagalog and Ilocano, ensuring a clear understanding. At our office, you can always expect genuine people who truly care, professional and customized service, and honest advice focused on what’s right for you.
