Managing general agent Jackson Sumner & Associates (JSA) has announced the promotion of Kristel McNeil to property-casualty manager.
McNeil joined JSA in 1998 as support staff. In 2001, she moved into underwriting, and in 2006 she moved into renewal quoting, working from home while raising two young sons. In 2019, she returned to the company’s Boone, N.C., office full-time.
“Kristel’s deep knowledge of what JSA is and how we operate, along with her calm demeanor and sense of humor, make her a valued member of the JSA leadership team,” said Danielle Wade, president and CEO of JSA. “Her underwriting knowledge and instincts made her the obvious choice for this position.”
McNeil will continue to work from JSA’s Boone, N.C., headquarters and will report directly to Wade.
