I spent the last 5 years as a District manager with Wyffels Hybrids, and prior to that I was a sales agronomist for Hefty.”  Kelly just moved to Mitchell and will soon be married to her fiancé Josh Lutter.  In her spare time, Kelly enjoys golfing, working out and training her lab for pheasant hunting.
