Agent Spotlight: Ben Miller

Our agent spotlight this issue is Ben Miller, our Regional Director of Washington! Ben is a graduate of Washington State University in Pullman with a BA in Business Administration with an emphasis in risk management and insurance. Ben always knew that the insurance industry interested him, therefore he opened his agency called Prostar Financial Group.

Ben previously worked with a brokerage in Seattle, worked with Farmers in auto claims and losses, and worked at Country Insurance and Financial – where Ben met Shawn, the founder of Pacific Crest. Ben then started the Miller Insurance Agency in Everett in April of 2011, which he affiliated with the Pacific Crest name.

Ben is active in the community as he has sponsored the Fallen Firefighters Foundation and is setting up a scholarship for Washington State University insurance students worth about $1200 to help fund a couple lucky students with their future in the industry. Ben enjoys travel and looking for thrill seeking activity – he would love to learn to sky dive and bungee jump.

As an avid golfer Ben enjoys spending his free time playing in as many tournaments for charity or his local men’s club at Bellevue golf course as time will allow. Ben is a multiple time winner of his annual Pi Kappa Alpha fraternity golf tournament and plans on getting his name etched on the trophy several more times in the future.

Ben appreciates working with Pacific Crest because he benefits from the back office support and is thankful for the knowledge and brainstorming that is provided by the Regional Directors and Shawn. “I like working with other experienced agents and really value the knowledge building that is included in helping agents succeed in their agencies,” says Ben. We, at Pacific Crest, enjoy working with Ben as he is a great regional director to all of our Washington agents! Thanks for all that you do!
