I'm anticipating graduating Spring 2023
Research Focus:
My research focuses on the planting date of soybean in a rye cover crop system. I'm testing for the effects that an ultra early planting date will have on soybean yield. I am also collecting data on the environmental conditions experienced when selecting an early spring planting date in order to see what effects less-than-ideal planting conditions will have on soybean stand count.
Why OSU?
I actually attended the Ohio State University for undergrad and received my bachelor's of science in sustainable plant systems with a specialization in agronomy. After graduation I was working on a horse ranch operation that I had previously interned for but the ranch ended up closing down and I contacted my old boss, Dr. Laura Lindsey, looking for advice and she happened to have a graduate research project that another prospective graduate student had just declined so I jumped at the opportunity while there was still funding and the rest is history!
