Kareem is the Director for the South Florida Region of Bankers Life, a company that focuses on protecting the health, wealth, and retirement needs of middle-income America.

Bob joined the Ferrari family in 2024. As a way to escape from the fast-paced tech world, he discovered Ferrari is more than just a car, it’s a community. FCA Tampa Bay has a calendar full of events including Cars and Coffee meetups, dinners, track days, group drives and more. Bob is a people person who loves bringing enthusiasts together and enabling others to connect and share their passion for Ferrari. Feel free to connect with Bob if you have any questions about FCA Tampa or want to join.
