One of my first jobs included driving a two-cylinder John Deere tractor through a creek and up a hill to my grandpa’s house at age eight.

Today, I travel the same route to my home office, where I manage my business, create, and raise two boys on our sixth-generation family farm. My farm roots fuel my passion as an entrepreneur, educator, author, and creator.

I specialize in sharing the story of farm families and the commodities they raise (including my own) with consumers and youth across multiple educational and digital platforms. When away from my desk, I like to be outdoors, dig in the dirt, cook, paint, design, and doodle to-do lists and dreams on the pages of an empty canvas.
