For those who don’t know me, I enjoy being outdoors, hanging out with friends and family, or being at the barn. I am a good listener and motivator. I will always make sure you are in a good mood and never let you feel like you are not part of the FFA family.

Looking back I never thought I would be where I am today. I have always desired to be involved in agriculture, but I didn’t know where to start. This desire comes from the opportunity of growing up visiting family that lived in the country. Seeing the livestock and farm land made me want to get in involved in agriculture. FFA has given me the chance to get involved in agriculture. Now that I have been a member I would like to get more involved by becoming an officer. As an officer I hope to promote the benefits of being a member of the FFA, and strive to be the best FFA officer possible.
