As long as I can remember my desire has always been to work in the agricultural industry. I was born and raised on a farm on Long Island, New York my passion for this has grown deeper over the years. My family farms about 275 acres and specializes in spinach, cabbage, and many varieties of lettuce. I have noticed many changes in the industry through the years; farms seem to be disappearing left and right. Due to my life-long involvement in our farm and my love for agriculture, I want to use my education to contribute to the survival of my family's farm and to the agricultural industry in general.
