About James Kenniff, Au, AI Ns
An Insurance Professional who was born and raised in Sarasota, Florida. I am a Graduate of the Florida State University's College of Business with a Bachelor degree in Risk Management and Insurance. I have work experience from various fields in the Insurance Industry. From Bass Underwriters, a binding authority P&C MGA, who offers specialty products and professional services in the Excess and Surplus market, Marketing Director for Construction Casualty Insurance, a growing independent agency, as well as Atlas Insurance Agency working as a sales producer, and most recently an Underwriter for Beacon Aviation Insurance, an Aviation specialty MGU. I currently work for FCCI Insurance Group, out of our Sarasota, Florida, Corporate office. My experiences, on the agency side, MGA side, and now carrier side, have helped and continue to help me grow and explore new avenues of insurance for a greater understanding of the every changing industry. I have obtained my AU and AINS designations, and am currently working on getting my CPCU designation. I am always actively seeking to increase my knowledge of our Industry and ways to better help my clients understand and obtain better coverages. In my free time I enjoy spending time with my family and friends, volunteering with the Special Olympics, Big Brothers Big Sisters, as well as the Miracle League of Manasota where I am a coach of the Dodgers currently. I also enjoy playing basketball, working out, and running half marathons. I would like to eventually teach and give back to my hometown as well as coach a sports team, to help kids learn and grow through sports.
