Benjamin Young
Benjamin Young Agency Co-Owner

Benjamin is a decorated combat veteran who comes to Brightway after being a captive agent. He saw a demand for options and wanted to do more for his customers and others in his community who needed coverage. With Brightway, he has access to a growing list of 40 insurance companies, which means he can offer more choice while helping consumers gain total protection for their homes, cars, trucks and more.

 Benjamin and his wife, Tara, set roots in Abilene when he was stationed at Dyess Air Force Base. He gained most of his financial savvy while serving eight years as a Combat Comptroller. His service includes tours in Iraq, Afghanistan, and Korea as well as several humanitarian missions in the U.S. and abroad. He is also currently a State Certified Firefighter and Nationally Registered Emergency Medical Technician where he volunteers his time within his community responding to both medical and fire emergencies.

 Additionally, he is a member of the Abilene Chamber of Commerce, Abilene Young Professionals and Jim Ned Baseball Association Board. He has been awarded the Abilene Top 20 under 40 award and is a Graduate of Leadership Abilene where he earned the Mr. Leadership Award.

 He is an alumnus of Ashford University in Clinton, Iowa where he earned a bachelors degree in Business Administration. He loves to read, hunt, play sports, camp, and spend time with his family.
