Supervised Agricultural Experience:
My latest SAE was a placement restoration project on a 122 Cub Cadet. I worked under the supervision of my advisor Buster Padgett, in restoring the old garden tractor. During the project, I learned how to operate a paint booth, operate a sandblaster, and I learned how to work on maintenance issues with an old garden tractor. My restoration SAE is one I’m proud of because it is something I never had thought about doing before, but the project was super interesting and helped me learn more about tractor restoration.

Favorite thing about FFA:

My favorite FFA memory was going to my first chapter visit as a district officer. I was extremely nervous at first but being able to go out to another school and actually conduct a workshop was life changing. And I will remember every up and down of that day.

College Plans:
I am still unsure of college right now. But most likely I either want to go to Alabama or Auburn university. I plan on majoring in either Ag business, or some type of law.
