Entering my Freshman year at Morehead State, I was an agriculture education major and had every intention of one day becoming a high school ag teacher. In one of my courses, I was required to complete classroom observation hours. It didn’t take long for me to decide that being a teacher may not be my calling once I began observing. I determined that my heart truly belonged to the livestock industry, so I switched my major to animal science to pursue my passion for livestock. Along with switching my major, I also had to change my career plans as well. To be completely honest, I am still not sure what I would like to do after I graduate college, but I do have a couple options I am looking at. I am considering working for the Ohio Cattlemen’s Association or the Ohio Beef Council, and I am also considering working on the production side of things as well.
