“Change is the law of life. And those who
look only to the past or present are
certain to miss the future.”- John F. Kennedy
Change is certainly the law in life. Every second, minute, hour, day,
month, and year, change happens and we have to learn how to adapt to it. Change
this month for me has been huge. As you can tell I haven’t been a faithful
blogger and that’s really only because of my transition. As of the middle of
June, I left my job as an Animal Science Extension Educator and accepted a
position with the Pennsylvania Department of Agriculture, an opportunity to further
my current goals and achieve personal growth.
Extension was a tremendous opportunity. I served the community and met
the needs of agriculture producers, professionals, and the county residents. It
was a pleasure working with outstanding producers in the counties. I feel that
I have learned so much because of our progressive farmers and prosperous land
that we have right here in our region.
Now, I enjoy working for the Secretary of Agriculture for the state of
Pennsylvania. It is truly rewarding (just like Extension) seeing the “good
change” and differences we can make in the lives of farmers and agriculturists.
I am excited about my change and hope to
continue this blog with more stories in agriculture whether it’s through our
family farm, my career, or news in the industry.
