Kayley Pitts

Dispatch Manager

Kayley Pitts has over 10 years in customer service. I am naturally drawn to help others and resolve a problem. I have been in cosmetology for many years, and it is crazy how many similarities there are between hair and sod. I have also been a 911 dispatcher in the county where I was born and raised, but that did not come with the customer service side of things that I enjoy doing. I never dreamed of being a dispatch manager for a sod farm, but this is by far the most enjoyable job I’ve ever had. I have learned more about sod than I thought I would, and our agronomist Kenny Neel always provides pivotal information. I love being the dispatch manager for many reasons, but I love that I work with people that feel like family. I enjoy talking to the customers but dispatching the trucks has given me a new outlook on trucking. My plan is to retire from Sodmasters, but my heart will always be a part of the farm.
