Meet the Agronomy Intern!

Jul 08, 2022


Meet one of our Summer Agronomy Interns, Machaela!

Machaela is a senior studying agricultural education at Iowa State University. She grew up in Van Horne, Iowa, and was involved in various organizations including FFA and 4-H during high school. Machaela loves to spend her free time hanging out with friends and going fishing with her family!

When we asked Machaela why she chose to intern with IAS she said, "IAS has a great reputation and I knew it would be a great learning opportunity. I wanted to diversify my experience with the agronomy side of agriculture."

If you see Machaela at an IAS location or out on your operation, be sure to say hello!
