About Me
I am a Cowboy alumnus, having earned my bachelor’s degree in agricultural education from OSU in 2002. I value family, helping youth reach their potential and doing what I can to help others solve issues and concerns of importance to them and their communities, all of which is why I joined OSU Extension, with its land-grant mission of helping Oklahoma citizens improve the quality of their lives through practical, research-based educational programs. I can often be found presenting workshops and demonstrations and working to answer individual producer and civic-leader questions about all types of agricultural-related issues. I have walked many a field and pasture, scouting for the presence of crop diseases and pests. Run into me in town or at an event and the conversation may end up being the same: How can we best solve whatever the subject is about which we’re talking? I am proud to give our area a voice as part of the planning committee of the annual Red River Crops Conference, helping to enhance the livelihoods and stewardship of those who work and depend on the land.
