Corvallis Knights Baseball President & GM Bre Miller joins #OTP to discuss becoming the first female General Manager in the West Coast League, the success of the team, and why she’s so passionate about mentoring others. 

Bre’s career in baseball started 15 years ago when she joined the team as an intern. From there she worked her way up, eventually earning the title of GM and President. She’s been apart of the franchise’s storied success, where they have won five straight titles and made the divisional playoffs every years except for one. 

Bre is now one of four female GMs in the league, and today shares why she thinks women have been able to find so much success. She also talks about balancing her career with being a mom of two, and why mentoring is so important to her. 

Episode topics: 

• Being named the first female GM in the West Coast League (baseball)
• Being a trailblazer in the league and how far women have come in the WCL
• Her role in the success of the Corvallis Knights
• Managing her career and being a mom of two
• Her passion for mentoring others

Quote:  

“When I was named gm, I was the first female gm in the west coast league, and even still to this day when I share that with people they are like, “what? Omg, that’s amazing!” And it’s crazy that that is such a big deal when it doesn’t seem like it should be.”
