David White Sr. Commercial Relationship Manager - Commodities & Correspondent Banking INTRUST Bank, Wichita David White, a fourth-generation farmer and banker, grew up on his family’s farm in Wellington. With nearly 2,000 acres dedicated to growing wheat, beans, corn and milo, his extensive hands-on experience in farm operations demonstrates his practical knowledge and reliability in the field. David’s great-grandfather, Charlie, originally from Illinois, moved to Kansas after a dispute with his brothers. He began working for a local farmer, which set the foundation for the family’s farming legacy. David graduated from Wellington High School in 2006, where he was actively involved in 4-H and Future Farmers of America. He then pursued a degree in agricultural economics at Kansas State University. During an internship with Farm Credit, David’s interest in the banking industry was sparked as he saw how his classroom knowledge could be applied practically to assist farmers. After graduating from K-State in 2010, he furthered his education by earning an MBA with a concentration in finance from Fort Hays State University in 2014. “From an ag banking standpoint, I have the opportunity to help producers like my family be successful and have the tools they need to grow and stay relevant,” David said, “and inspires me to be involved in the industry.” After working at Farm Credit, David started his career at INTRUST Bank, N.A., in Wichita and has been with them for 11 years. INTRUST offers a full suite of financial products for its ag clients, including lines of credit, term loans for equipment and real estate purchases.
