I am a proud Buckeye with a Master’s of Science in Agriculture from The Ohio State University in the areas of Agricultural and Extension Education. I am also a 2009 graduate of The Ohio State University in Agricultural and Extension Education for my Undergraduate coursework in 2009. I started working for Ohio State University Extension in Van Wert County in 2009 only three days after graduating from my Undergrad .
I am passionate about teaching others through experiential education. I work with youth in Van Wert County providing programs for Club Experiences, Livestock Quality Assurance, Animal Sciences Education, and Healthy Living. I support 4-H Camping and various projects for the county as well.
I am passionate about serving all abilities of youth to give them a positive experience through 4-H. My Design Team is Health Living, and I work with an amazing team to provide the 4-H Winning Plan developing accommodations for youth. I work closely with invisible illness & mental health and am a Mental Health First Aid Instructor.
