Matt Field
My name is Matt Field and I was born and raised in Brookings, SD. I look forward to serving the Brookings community where my wife Katie, son Brooks and daughter Blakelynn call home. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with family/friends, cheering on the Jackrabbits and Bobcats. In addition to those things I enjoy participating in all things outdoors (hunting, fishing and golfing). I am very excited to start with Farmers Union and look forward to providing quality service in the Brookings and surrounding communities.

Farmers Union Insurance is known for our fairness, rural values, personalized service and long-standing relationships. I am proud and grateful to be an independent agent that represents Farmers Union Insurance.
I was raised on a farm south of Revillo, South Dakota, where the value of hard work was instilled in me by my parents. I have had the pleasure to live and work in Brookings, S.D., over the past 8 years along with my husband and two children. I am able to insure what matters most to you through home, auto, health, life, and commercial insurance needs. Farmers Union Insurance is truly “Insuring a Brighter Tomorrow.”

I am a farmer at heart. Growing up on the family farm in Carthage, SD and working with my dad and grandpa are some of the greatest memories I have. I still get a chance to get dirty once in a while when I go home to help my dad even today.
I was with Wells Fargo for five years working with farm families every day on their finances and crop insurance. In 2005 I was given an opportunity to go into the insurance business with my uncle Leroy Person and his son Troy Person in their family-owned agency. It was such a great opportunity as I had the opportunity to learn from Leroy who had more than 17 years in the business and was also a retired teacher.
I’m married to Jessica and we have two children. Helping my customers and giving them the service they deserve are what I like most about being an agent.

Mitchell
David Schelske
I grew up in a Farmers Union Insurance family and experienced firsthand how hard work, service, and dedication makes an enormous impact on the community. While my wife and I have only called Mitchell home for last few years, we are incredibly excited to begin serving the community and creating a positive impact.
As a Farmers Union Insurance agent, I have the ability to work with multiple companies to offer great rates with a wide range of coverages. This gives me the ability to find the best company for each client’s unique situation and avoid hassle of sorting through quotes from multiple agents.
I also am committed to reviewing coverages yearly because frankly, things change. Whether it is adding a teen driver, the ever-changing value on your home or even adding more liability coverage, no change too small. This gives you peace of mind knowing I will always look out for your best interests.
Some people might think that since it is Farmers Union Insurance that our agencies only work with farmers, but that is not the case. I can work with anyone and find the coverage you need. Not only do I offer auto and home policies, but also life, renters, commercial, and health insurance. This agency is a one-stop shop for all your insurance needs. On top of all that, I am always available when you have questions or concerns. Do not hesitate to call if anything comes up.

My husband Doug and I are proud parents to three wonderful kids. We enjoy spending time together riding horses, exploring new destinations, or shuttling them to their various activities and events.
I grew up in the Colton/Hartford area and was immersed in the rural way of life. From my upbringing, I developed a deep appreciation for the agricultural community and the great outdoors. I enjoy spending time on the lake or pounding gravel running Salem's scenic backroads.
I am a people person and greatly enjoy connecting with others. Building meaningful relationships has always helped to keep me grounded and energized. As an agent, I love that I can help people navigate their policies and provide them with peace of mind.

I have helped many clients, including many family farms, with estate planning.
