My name is Sam Anderson, and I am the Vice President of Crop Insurance & Farm Risk Manager at American Bank & Trust.

Agriculture has always been at the center of who I am. I grew up in Kulm, North Dakota, on a cow‑calf and feedlot operation, which gave me a firsthand understanding of the dedication and decision‑making it takes to run a successful farm.

Throughout my career in the crop insurance industry, I’ve worked closely with agencies, lenders, and agricultural professionals across the region. Those experiences reinforced the importance of strong partnerships and clear communication when it comes to managing risk and protecting a producer’s operation. Today, I focus on helping farmers and ag businesses understand their coverage options and make confident, informed decisions.

My wife, Shanna, and I call Aberdeen home, where we are raising our three children. What I value most about American Bank & Trust is its commitment to serving producers with integrity and care. Whether you’re navigating risk or planning for the future, I’m here to help and look forward to working with you.
