INTRODUCING KELLIE EINCK!
Our guest today is another finalist for the American Star Award in Agricultural Placement. Kellie Einck blew me away in our interview. She got “bored” in high school, so she started taking diesel technology classes at a nearby community college. This led her to becoming certified, and then starting full-time work at age 18.
Kellie decided that she needed a backup plan, so she pursued a four year degree in accounting. She is almost done with that, and she is considering pursuing her CPA for work in later years when she no longer wants to be a mechanic.
In addition to all of this Kellie just received her pilot’s license. Wow…what an achiever!
