Deanna Darnielle


I joined my father, Aubrey M. Darnielle, in 1993 as a newcomer to the insurance industry. Prior to that I had worked for several years at Meridian Oil, having relocated to Denver, Colorado, as the oil decline of the late 1980's was drawing everything toward Texas. After my father was diagnosed with cancer I returned home to Billings and began working in the agency that he had formed in 1986. Unfortunately my father passed away in 2000, my mother following in 2002, and it became my job to perpetuate the family business. I earned the designation of Certified Insurance Counselor, CIC, in 2000; I am a past president of the Montana Association of Female Executives, MAFE from 2002; past president of the Downtown Exchange Club of Billings from 2005; past president of the Independent Insurance Agents' Association of Montana from 2015. I manage the daily operations of the agency, and specialize in writing commercial insurance - everything your business may need from General Liability, Professional Liability, Property, Tools/Equipment, Vehicles, Workers' Compensation insurance and Bonding, We've got a great team here and earning your business, and giving you the level of service you expect, is of the utmost importance to us. We believe Darnielle Insurance enjoys a favorable reputation in the community, and we do everything in our power to protect that. I was born and raised in Billings, graduating from Billings West High School, and have one son, and one lovely granddaughter! I couldn't be more proud to come to work every day and see the family name on the sign outside our building. Insurance is a dynamic, challenging, ever-changing industry and I am so thankful for the opportunity I've had to run this business and work in this industry.
