 Well, what I really like about working in Extension is the different varieties of jobs that you could do on one day. Kind of a lot of different careers really all rolled into one. For example, one day I may be out in the field with a producer and then later on in that day could be out in a corn trial plot taking field notes and then in the afternoon going to an elementary school and visiting with kids about farm production and so really all in one day I was able to be a farmer, a crop scientist and an elementary school teacher. I knew that Extension was a good fit for me when one day I was sitting in my agriculture research lab looking at a computer, you know, crunching numbers staring at an Excel spreadsheet thinking, you know, I really need to get out in the world and be with people. And then I thought back on a time when I had tended a field day at the Carrington Research Center and just seeing the Extension specialists out in the trial plots explaining what was going on, they seemed to be so happy and passionate about what they were talking about and really enjoying their job and I just really felt like that would be a great job to have. Being able to be involved in agriculture research and working with people and it's a lot of fun. What surprised me most about working in Extension is all the different leadership roles that you take in your community. You have the opportunity to serve on all different types of boards and they really look to you for answers and guidance and, you know, leadership and so working in Extension I really do feel like I am able to make a difference in my community.
