So incredibly proud of my amazing colleague Katie Fife, recipient of the Outstanding Program Support Award from the International Association of Programs for Agricultural Leadership! 🎉

Since January 2020, we’ve completed 1 Extend, 2.5 AGL classes and 3 Extension Academies together, traveling coast to coast and across the Atlantic! ✈️ Katie is warm, supportive, dedicated and notices every detail. She truly goes above and beyond, and AGL is better because of her.

Swipe through a few of my favorite memories with this incredible teammate! ❤️

Congratulations, Katie! So well deserved.
