Basically you want to transform your list to the desired data contract. Linq is good for this:

var transform = new
    {
        data = data.Select(x => 
            new {
                x.FIRST_NAME,
                x.LAST_NAME,
                ...
            }),
        ...
    };

Then just serialize and return the transform object.
