About Brandon Umphrey

Working with people has always been a passion of mine, from helping people save for retirement to guiding students through their college decision process, assisting people in finding their dream job, to now training people through the sales process. Helping others define the \"what’s next\" has always been a motivator for me. Being both personal and professional is what drives me to coach people through times of big decisions.When I’m not working you’ll find me talking with people from the seat of my bicycle hearing their life story and sharing mine. I’m a passionate individual with a strong drive to see others succeed and reach their next goal in life.GROWMARK is a regional agricultural cooperative and owned by local member cooperatives.
