Dairy Background: I was fortunate to be brought into the dairy industry by working on my neighbor's dairy farm growing up. What started as play dates feeding spent the calves grew into a love for cows and the industry as a whole. I continued my involvement in agriculture by joining FFA and 4-H, which lead me to showing cattle at my county fair and at the Wisconsin State Fair.

​

Why did you decide to take on a leadership/executive position in the club? I have loved this club and this group of students since my very first meeting. I have always been inspired by the past leaders of the club who helped me navigate through our activities and life on campus. I wanted to try and continue on that legacy of leadership and friendship by being there for my peers however I can.

​

How are you involved on campus and in Gopher Dairy Club? In GDC I have been on several committees and I served as the CFANS undergraduate student board representative and as a gopher dairy camp co-chair, along with my current position on the executive team. I am also in Lambda Delta Phi Sorority, Agricultural Business Club, and the Agricultural Education, Communication & Marketing Club.

​

What are your future plans after graduation? I plan to continue my involvement in the dairy industry, by connecting consumers to producers through sharing the dairy story.

​

If you could be one dairy product, what would you be and why? I would be ice cream! It comes in so many flavors and can make any day so much better!
