About John

John Ross has been a part of the Palmetto family for many years, leading with integrity, purpose, and a genuine love for people. He married his wife, Jennifer, in 2008. She loves and supports him well. They are proud parents to two beautiful daughters.

When he’s not at the office, you’ll likely find him on the golf course, traveling, or just soaking up time with his family.

For John, the insurance industry is more than policies and paperwork—it’s about helping people and solving problems. He sees his work as a way to use his God-given gifts to support families and businesses in our community. That spirit of service is also what makes Palmetto different. For over 40 years, the agency has remained locally owned, built on a foundation of honesty and ethical business practices. Beyond the office, John is passionate about giving back. Through partnering with organizations such as United Way, Helping Hands of Clemson, Calvary Home for Children, Hospice of the Upstate, Collins Family Ministries, and Habitat for Humanity of Anderson County, he invests in the same community that has given so much to him and his family. For John, work and life come together in a simple but powerful way: serve others well, both in business and in the community he calls home.
