For my SAE, in 2020 I started working at a local pizza restaurant. In December of 2021 I wanted to get more involved in agriculture and started working for farmers in my area. I worked for Brett Martin, a local chicken producer who had around 8 barns. At the same time I was also working for Jim Shepherd, a local cattle producer. Since October I now work at the University of Missouri Southwest Research Farm working with Andy Thomas on horticulture research.
