About
I am from a small town from South Texas and was raised on a swine farm, but we have turned to raising a small herd of longhorn cattle and a couple of beehives. I have been in college for a total of 9 years as a part-time student due to financial reasons, I was at Palo Alto Community College for 2.5 years and am currently a student at Texas State University for 6 years and will be finishing my lasts semester this year. I am majoring in Agriculture Science and minor in Agriculture Mechanics. I am looking to have a career as an Agriculture Extension Agent with A&M AgriLife. Going for my Masters might be a possibility for me in the future.

Goals and interests
- Career goal
I am currently interested in trying to apply for an internship that focuses on a career path towards the Agriculture Extension Agent with Texas A&M AgriLife. I chose this career path because I love teaching and educating people about agriculture and how it's not just farming an drenching, but it's also a study of the land and growing crops for food comes down to a science.
- Graduate school interests
I might get my Masters in the future, but I would like to achieve that goal when I have more financial stability.
- Outside the classroom
Horseback Riding, reading books of different genres, cooking and baking, gardening, creating personal projects in woodworking and welding.
