FARM - FAMILY - HOME - LIFE

Before beginning in the insurance industry, I was the manager of a family owned and operated Purina feed store in Burlington, VT for a year and a half.  I accepted the position as the Franklin/Grand Isle County Farm Family Agent in Feb. of 1989 and moved to St. Albans, VT.  The business began in an upstairs room of our home, with just myself working full time, and my wife helping out with clerical duties two afternoons a week.  From there we moved into an office building in Milton, VT followed by an office in St. Albans.  In September of 1995 we moved to our current location on Mill River Rd in Georgia, VT, and began seeking out other insurance companies to represent, broadening our product portfolio.  I started with a very small book of business and limited product lines to offer, and built a profitable, multi-line agency, with 3 agents and 2 CSRs currently on staff.  I have been an award winning producer for 8 of the 17 years I have been a Farm Family agent, and qualified for membership in the Million Dollar Round Table in 1993, which is the top honor an insurance agent can receive.  I grew up on a small farm in So. Ryegate, VT and I believe my farming background prepared me for owning a business, and gave me the knowledge and expertise to understand the needs of agriculture related business.  I love sales and enjoy the fact that I have the opportunity to get to know and work with so many interesting and hard working people on a day to day basis

Karen Fiske
Agent / Customer Service Representative

When Dan accepted the position of Franklin and Grand Isle counties Farm Family insurance agent in 1989, he worked out of an office in our home, and I helped him with a limited amount of office work while being a stay at home mom for our 3 children.  I started working in the business “officially” as a Customer Service Representative in 1997.  I took my “Property and Casualty” licensing exam in 1998 and have been working as an Agent/Customer Service Representative since then.  I am a good problem solver and enjoy that aspect of my job very much.  I like dealing with people and strive to provide a very high level of service to everyone that I deal with. 

Renee grew up in Georgia, VT and now lives in St. Albans with her husband and son.  While in high school, she worked at a pharmacy in Milton until September of 1997, then went to work for the Chittenden Bank Loan Servicing Department for six years.  After the birth of her son, she decided that she wanted to be employed closer to home.  In October of 2003, Renee was hired as a Customer Service Representative.   She enjoys working with people, would eventually like to get her insurance license, and has been a pleasant addition to The Fiske Agency Customer Service team. 

Kellie A. King
Customer Service Representative

Kellie is a native Vermonter who enjoys working with the public in a financial capacity.  She started her career working at Howard Center for Human Services in 1989 auditing client records for accurate Medicaid documentation.   In April of 2000 she saw an advertisement for a customer service representative at a local insurance agency.  After applying, she realized that working in a small, service oriented atmosphere would be very rewarding because of the consistent client contact.  Since May of 2000, Kellie’s knowledge of the insurance industry has grown a great deal and she hopes to obtain her Property and Casualty insurance license in the near future.  Kellie’s role at the Fiske Agency is to provide support to all customers who need to make any type of change to their insurance policies, and she also maintains the office computer network by keeping all of the software updates current and functioning.
