Meet the GKB Spring Interns‼️
TR Putz
Otley, Iowa
This spring, TR is serving as a ranch/show barn intern. He has been traveling with our Hereford and Brangus show barns, and is finishing out his time as our ranch management intern!
TR is currently attending Iowa State University majoring in Agricultural Studies with emphasis areas in Animal Science, Agricultural Business, and Supply Chain Management. He is also pursuing a professional sales certificate, which strengthens his ability to communicate value, build relationships, and support producers and customers across the agricultural industry.
When asked what sparked his interest in applying, he responded with seeing the internship as an opportunity to grow both personally and professionally by being a part of a team that pushes for continuous improvement. “I have always believed that growth comes from surrounding yourself with excellence. The operation’s strong reputation for superior genetics, progressive management, and meaningful customer relationships made it an ideal place to learn from individuals performing at a high level.”
