About Kelly Grills
About Kelly Grills

Faith, family and generosity are some of my highest priorities. For the first 20 years of my career, I worked in education. Now in my work with Thrivent, my mission to serve continues as I use my teaching gifts to support those in my community in a new area--financial clarity. Financial services can be confusing and overwhelming, and I make it my goal to help those I serve by taking the time to support their financial understanding.


When I am not working, I can be found spending time with my family. My husband, Kevin, serves as a pastor at a local church. We have 3 beautiful children who keep us busy with sports and activities. As a family we enjoy watching sports, getting outdoors, and serving our community. There is truly no greater joy than to see your children sharing their faith and love with others.
