Hello! My name is Dan Rataj. Thank you for visiting my page. I was born and raised right here in St. Louis and began my State Farm career in 2005. My wife Angie and I recently celebrated 24 years of marriage, and we are proud parents to our two children, Margot and Seth. Away from the office, I enjoy running, attending concerts, and dedicating my time to volunteering as a reading mentor in St. Louis Public Schools.

You’ll find my office conveniently located in the Oakville area of South County, on Telegraph Road, just off of I-270. We are in the same plaza as Andre's and Dunkin' Donuts, making it easy to stop by. Our exceptional, licensed staff is always ready to assist you. Karen, who has been a friend since childhood, serves as our dedicated customer service representative. Ghazaleh, pronounced "Gazelle," joined our team in 2022 and provides assistance in English and Persian. My cousin Tim also became a part of our family business in 2023. Together, we are committed to helping families and individuals across St. Louis City, St. Louis County, Jefferson County, and the surrounding areas protect what matters most. We can assist with a wide range of needs, including auto, home, and condo insurance, coverage for renters, personal articles, and even your beloved pets. We also support our local businesses with commercial insurance options.

Halloween is just around the corner, and we love this time of year when everyone has their decorations out. We don't want insurance to be spooky though- give us call and we'll be glad to set up a review to go over all your questions and concerns.

I am licensed to serve customers in Missouri, Illinois, and Kansas. My educational background includes a Bachelor of Arts from the University of Missouri and a Master's of Divinity from Midwestern Theological Seminary. Over my career, I've been honored as a Champions Circle Qualifier, a Senior Vice President's Club Qualifier three times, and an Ambassador Travel Qualifier for thirteen years in a row.
