Making a difference in the world – it’s nearly a universal desire for all of us. But where do you fit in? And how best to you make an impact? One college student is making that impact and blazing their trail. Cameron Weber, a biology major at Rose-Hulman Institute of Technology and a Field Atlas Ambassador, joins us today to talk their path to agbioscience, including:
- Talking to two kinds of people – those that grew up on the farm and those who stumbled into it and are happy they did. Cameron is in the latter
- Wanting to originally be a doctor until getting connected with Field Atlas at a career fair and learning more about agbioscience.
- Finding a new path and forging your way forward as a college student
- Their six-month internship with Corteva Agriscience as a greenhouse assistant in Puerto Rico
- Field Atlas Ambassadors – what do they do? And what has Cameron’s experience been like in their five semesters with the team?
- Cameron’s advice for companies searching for young talent (hint: it’s not ping pong tables in the breakroom and pizza on Fridays)
- Working on their thesis as they wrap up their time at Rose-Hulman
- Cameron’s plans headed into graduation this spring – pssssss – she's currently looking for a job....
