On this episode of Agency Nation Radio, we meet Ivie Isler, assistant vice president and marketing analyst supervisor at McGriff Insurance Services in Birmingham, Alabama. 

From serving as president of the Birmingham Independent Insurance Agents (BIIA) to chair of the Alabama Independent Insurance Agents (AIIA) young agents committee (YAC)—and numerous other roles in between—Isler isn't one to shy away from an opportunity to help the independent agency channel. 

Isler's leadership was instrumental in helping AIIA win its first InsurPac Eagle Award. She emphasizes the importance of being involved in legislation. “If you are not involved with it, then people outside of your industry are making changes to your industry that will impact you," she says. “You have to have a voice." 

In 2023, Isler received the InsurPac Young Agent of the Year award for her role in AIIA's Eagle status. In 2024, Isler also received the national Young Agent of the Year Award for leadership in her local and state associations and involvement in national YAC events.
