Hello!<\/p>\n

My name is Kylie Siddoway and I am an Intern in the OSU Extension office in Baker County. I grew up in eastern Oregon on my family\u2019s cattle ranch and I was heavily involved in Extension 4-H and FFA. I just finished my first year at Texas A&M University in College Station and came home to work at my local Extension office for the summer.<\/p>\n

I am majoring in agricultural leadership and development and am excited to explore Extension as a potential career path. I am working with both the Baker County Fair Board and Angela Robb, the administrative office manager and local liaison in the county office. My main responsibilities are organizing the county fair, contacting vendors, helping with open show entries and overseeing our front office.<\/p>\n

So far this summer I have had an amazing time here at the Extension office and I\u2019ve already learned more than I could have hoped for. Angela is someone I have known for a long time and it has been nice to work with a familiar face for my first college internship.\u00a0 She\u2019s been off for a few weeks and that gave me an opportunity to help manage the front office and take on additional responsibilities such as filing paperwork and working with staff to answer community members\u2019 questions.<\/p>\n

I have really appreciated all of the staff here for their support and kindness. It is a wonderful place to work and a great learning environment. I already know I\u2019ve developed skills that will transfer to any career I end up in. Working at the Baker County Extension office is a great opportunity and I\u2019m thankful to be on staff here.<\/p>\n

Overall, I am grateful for this opportunity and look forward to the remainder of my internship before heading back to Texas A&M.<\/p>\n
