Emily Gossett was thrown into an ag class and soon found a passion for agriculture. “I was able to lean into my individual skills and learn about my unique place in agriculture.”

In high school, she found she was passionate about communicating with others about agriculture. “Through many different avenues — podcasts, local newspapers and local radio shows — I was able to be a voice for an often-misunderstood industry.”

During her time in FFA, her supervised agricultural experience focused on agricultural communications, where she worked with local publications to spread the message of agriculture effectively.

While in FFA, she participated in state finals for Creed speaking, where she learned how to get up, dust herself off and keep going!

This year, Emily wants to love, serve and celebrate every person she encounters. “One of my favorite quotes is, ‘We can’t love people we don’t know,’ I want to love every member,” Emily said.
