Extension and Outreach
As an agricultural economist with roots in a small farming community, I realize the importance of agricultural extension in improving the livelihoods of farmers and rural agricultural communities. I have witnessed firsthand the disconnect that often exists between highly technical economic research and the realities of the agricultural industries being studied. This disconnect has driven me to pursue a career in which I focus on agricultural extension, so that I may perform economic research informed by practical knowledge to reflect the realities that farmers face, with the goal of communicating my research to agricultural stakeholders and policy-makers to provide the most benefit to the agricultural community.
