Katherine Almonte
Office Manager
License #LA-1218260
Hi! I’m Katherine — also knowns as Kat or Kathy. Originally from the Dominican Republic, I’ve proudly called Staten Island home since 2005. With over a decade of experience in the insurance industry, I am dedicated to helping individuals and families confidently navigate their insurance needs. Fluent in both English and Spanish, I take pride in being a trusted advisor to my community, ensuring my customers feel supported and empowered in making important decisions.
Many of my customer relationships have grown through referrals, a reflection of the care, and bond I strive to build with every person I work with. When I’m not working, I enjoy traveling, cooking, discovering new restaurants, and spending time outdoors—especially when I can share those moments with my daughter.

Everyone calls me Pam around here! I joined the Larissa Buerano State Farm Office in Staten Island in 2018. The team and the State Farm customers make this place exciting! I love helping customers figure out what they need, and providing remarkable customer service. I can help with Auto, Home, Life, and Business Insurance. I never thought I would be working with insurance, but I have come to enjoy it greatly and hope to grow with the office!

Mia DeMagistris
Agent's Assistant
License #LA-1812586
Hi there, I’m Mia! I’ve been with the agency since 2022 and have the pleasure of being Larissa’s assistant. As a native Staten Islander, it’s so rewarding to have my career unfold right in my own neighborhood and to see our agency make a real impact in the community. I work hard behind the scenes to keep our operations running smoothly and love what I do—every day brings something new and exciting! I especially enjoy helping to organize the community events we participate in. I also manage our social media account, @nyinsuranceagent, where I get to share all the great things we’re involved in. When I’m not at work, you’ll find me at concerts, spending time with my family, or painting dog portraits—my favorite creative outlet!
