I am the Agro Sales Specialist at the Elm Creek Co-op location. As of Sept.1 with the amalgamation between Elm Creek and Marquette, Elm Creek is now excited to offer Ag inputs such as seed chemical fertilizer and enhanced Feed options with Masterfeeds to our members. I have been working diligently with the Marquette Co-op AG team to gain the knowledge needed to serve our Ag community. My experience in these areas stems from a knowledge of dairy, cattle and sheep farming from our family farm. I have been able to share the knowledge I have built not only with our customers to date, but also with others. I have been involved for 8 years in the Elm Creek 4H Cattle Program first as a member and now as a leader. I have committed time and effort into promoting agriculture and ensuring the yearly Carman Fair 4H Beef Cattle show and sale is a big success. I am also dedicated to expanding the Agriculture options in our store and being able to provide you with excellent options and service in these areas going forward.

I
am the Agronomist for the Marquette location as of January 2020.
Before joining the CO-OP team I previously worked in Hamiota, Manitoba
as a Crop Input Associate. I am a Graduate of the Agriculture Diploma
Program at the University of Manitoba, with a major in Agronomy. I am
currently in the process of obtaining my CCA Certification. While in
university I worked as a summer student in South Lakes. I grew up on a
grain farm in Beausejour Manitoba, where I still work and help out on
during the busy seasons. In my free time I enjoy playing sports of all
kinds, outdoor activities and spending time with friends and family. I
look forward to growing in my position and can’t wait for what this
upcoming season has in store.
