Career Ambition: My plan is to become a professor at a land-grant university with a three-way split appointment in teaching, research, and extension.

Talent: Motivational Monologue

Social Impact Initiative: In your lifetime you may or may not need a lawyer or a surgeon, but you will always need a farmer. Growing Up, Growing Ag promotes American farms and farmers’ markets, bridges the gap between producers and consumers, educates on agricultural careers and practices, and reminds Americans to always thank a farmer.

What is the best advice you’ve ever received? A very close friend and mentor reminds me constantly that I should “doubt my doubts but never doubt my faith”. I shouldn’t doubt the faith I have in myself and my capabilities as I have put in the time and effort to get to where I am today.
