Hi! My name is Isabella Brown, but I go by Bella. This summer, I’m interning with the Oregon State University Extension Service in Benton County, focusing on Extension Communications. I’m about to enter my senior year at Oregon State University, where I’m pursuing a degree in agricultural business and food management, which I will complete next year.<\/span><\/p>\n

I’m particularly interested in a marketing career within the agricultural sector and hope to train and breed horses on the side. I’ve lived in the Pacific Northwest my whole life. As a child, I was active in 4-H in Columbia County, where I rode horses in multiple disciplines and studied hippology for a year before dedicating myself to showing horses in other associations. During high school, I spent my summers working at farm stands and farmers’ markets, selling delicious Oregon strawberries and connecting with local farmers.<\/span><\/p>\n

Through my internship with OSU Extension Communications, I hope to learn more about the Extension Service’s impact on the communities it serves. Although I’ve always had a personal and professional connection to the agricultural community, I didn’t grow up in an agricultural area and wasn’t familiar with the OSU Extension Service until I started school at OSU.<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019m just beginning my internship, but I’ve already enjoyed meeting various individuals and teams within communications and learning how I can contribute to marketing efforts this summer. I’m excited to dive deeper into the Extension Service’s work and help market it to the public. I’ll be working on numerous marketing projects this summer and look forward to creating some amazing content to share with all of you<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
