Summary
I have a Bachelor's degree in general Agriculture, with a major in Agribusiness, and minor in Animal Science. I have always had a deep root within the Agriculture industry winning many prestigious awards throughout my involvement. I received my State FFA Degree, American FFA Degree, and the Oklahoma Youth Expo All-State Academic Award. Outside of agriculture, I represented National BETA Club as the Oklahoma State Vice President, was awarded both National and Oklahoma Honor Societies, and always stayed involved with community service. While in college I have received the Choctaw Nation Academic Scholarship (2018-2023), The Choctaw Nation Career Development (2018-2023), Noble Foundation Scholarship Recipient (2021-2023), and numerous other scholarships awarded with in Cameron University. I have served as a judge for Cameron University Interscholastic Agriculture Communications Competition (2021-2023). The Agriculture industry provides numerous opportunities to youth around America. The knowledge and skills acquired from an Agriculture Advisor is endless when it comes to stepping into adulthood with the drive for success.
