My favorite part of being an FFA coach are the contests that involve research. I am a total nerd and love to spend hours learning something new. I enjoy writing scripts and building the bond that it takes to develop into a team. There is nothing more satisfying than taking a topic that kids might not have ever encountered and turned it into an artful performance. Ag Issues allows me to do this, and it is my favorite contest to coach.

​​When I was in FFA, my SAE was in Agricultural Placement. I volunteered at an exotic petting zoo that did kids events in the area. I also helped out the owners on their farm. We had several unique animals in the zoo including a wolf, an 8-foot boa constrictor, spiders, lizards, monkeys and more! At the farm we had more monkeys, baboons, a pair of cougars, and a three-legged bear named Ben who loved to eat marshmallows out of your hand. I received second overall as a State Star in Agri-Placement.
