I’ve been an assistant farm manager at the University farm since August of 2003.  My responsibilities on the farm include the beef unit, horse unit, LAEC, and hay.  I received my bachelor’s degree in animal science with a minor in business administration from WKU in May 2002.  Furthermore, I completed my master’s degree in agriculture with an emphasis on animal science, also from WKU, in December 2003.  Additionally, I was selected for and participated in the 2002 Collegiate Livestock Leadership Institute.  My wife Parker is employed by WKU's Student Services.
