Scott Vermeulen, a Redmond exclusive agent, has been chosen to join a select group of 71 agency owners and personal financial representatives from around the country who serve on Allstate Insurance Company’s National Advisory Board.

Vermeulen will represent the Northwest Region as a member of the EA Business Relationship committee.
