Through out post secondary school I worked as an agronomist for an Ag retailer. I worked one summer for the Ministry of agriculture and then worked as an equipment operator on my family farm. I have now been with FCC for three years. Two as an Ag Lending Analyst and one as a Relationship Manager. I begin to be more actively involved in our family grain farm as well as coach figure skating and horse back riding lessons. My passion is being an advocate for agriculture. I volunteer with 4h and Ag in the classroom, am on the Sask Young Ag Board of Directors and run the social media pages for our Farm: Bowditch Farms Ltd.
