Throughout my academic and professional journey, I've enjoyed opportunities to bring new opportunities to those around me. At the USDA, I've worked across federal agencies to collaborate on research related to food and nutrition policy. As a university professor, I served on a number of research advisor boards including the Expert Scientific Advisory Group for Growing Up in New Zealand at the University of Auckland. At the University of Wyoming, I've served at the department, college, and unversity level on a variety of committees. Most recently, I completed the Leadership Development Program at the University of California-Berkeley Information School.

Over my career, I've worked closely with colleagues at the Agricultural and Applied Economics Association (AAEA) to develop an association-wide mentoring program. Now, I enjoy mentoring students at Kansas State University and interning with USDA. ​
