Danny Ketner
Insurance Agent
I was born and raised in Wichita Falls, Texas. Graduated from Wichita Falls High School in 1996. After earning a business degree from Midwestern State University in December of 2000, I moved to Austin to begin my career in the insurance business. I was hired by New York Life Insurance Company in April of 2001. I sold mostly life insurance, long term care, and annuities. After 4 1/2 years of living in the big city, my wife and I decided it was time to move back to our hometown. So in 2005, we came back to Wichita Falls and I joined the team of Whitmire and Whitmire. I continue to sell life insurance, long term care, and annuities, but have also added health insurance and employee benefits to the services I can offer. I have been married to my lovely wife, Amy, for 6 years. We are the proud parents of our first child, Maggie, born in February of 2008.
