What is your involvement in agriculture?
“I am currently the president of the Buffalo FFA Chapter. I also train and show horses and goats.”
She was also named the STAR Junior for the chapter at its annual banquet at the end of the recent school year and received a proficiency award for her efforts in community development.
What is your favorite part of being involved in agriculture?
“There are so many opportunities open to you. If I had not become involved in agriculture, I would have never pushed myself into my current leadership positions or gained such a passion to stick up for our way of life.”
What are your future plans? Do they involve agriculture in some way?
“After high school, I plan to attend a four-year university and pursue a degree in either equine science or agriculture business. Career choices for me range anywhere from an agriculture lobbyist to an equine physical therapist.”
Who has been your biggest influence and why?
“I am blessed to have many great influences in my life; friends, family, teachers, my ag instructors, but the biggest has to be my grandpa. He shows me that you can do anything you set your mind to. He was a poor kid from Springfield, but through hard work and dedication, he operated his own motorcycle shop, which is still open today. He is also a genuine Christian role model.”
