Goals: To become an Agricultural Education Teacher at my local high school or at a school near my home, so that I can give kids the opportunity I had growing up knowing the importance of agriculture and the opportunities it can provide.

Why did you choose Delaware?  I chose UD because the atmosphere and people were very warm, and I knew that this university could offer me a variety of experiences that would shape my future in the agricultural field. Plus, it is close to home so that I can still work on my family farm.
