Hi everyone, my name is Emma Preston. This is my second year on the board, and I was recently elected to be this years Vice President.

I am a freshman at Iowa State University majoring in Agriculture Studies with an emphasis in International Ag, Food Science and Safety, and Microbiology. My favorite thing about being on the board is having the opportunity to work with the juniors and novice at the junior national.

We are all super excited for the upcoming year! Kansas City is approaching quickly, and the Louisville entries are now open. Also, we are bringing back the National Youth Leadership Conference (NYLC) this spring! This conference is March 31-April 3 in Kansas City, Mo. This conference is an excellent opportunity to meet new people and spend time with the board and other AJMAA members. We will have speakers, tours, and activities planned for a fun weekend for ages 14-21! A full schedule and registration information will be coming out soon, watch the AJMAA Facebook & Instagram pages for more information.
