Alli Jobe

I live on a small family farm and have been surrounded by agriculture since at a young age. I instantly fell in love with this lifestyle and wanted to get more involved. At eight years old, my parents introduced me to 4-H, and I had been a member for over 10 years until aging out in 2020. Within my local 4-H club, I have held many livestock projects such as cattle, hogs, lambs, and goats. I have exhibited these animals at the county fair, along with many regional and national shows across the country still today. Throughout my journey thus far, I have already learned so much about the essential careers in agriculture, as well as meeting many industry professionals. Pennsylvania State University?s College of Agricultural Sciences will allow me to experience many different classes to see what I want to pursue in an agricultural career. As of right now, I am pursuing an Animal Science major with a business and management focus. I would like to finish my schooling in 4 years and begin working within the industry. All things considered, I have spent my life within the agriculture industry and plan to use my future career to make a significant impact on it. I am inspired to teach others the importance of agriculture because of my passion for it! It has touched my life in countless ways and I want to support agriculture so it can continue to do so for others and generations to come.
