I’m Ryan, a professional working in the utility field with a passion for transitioning into sustainable agriculture. With a background in electric utilities, I’m excited to bring my skills in problem solving, data analysis, and project management to the world of agriculture. I’m driven by a desire to cultivate sustainable practices and connect more deeply with the land. My goal is to find the right piece of farmland to start this journey and grow into a successful, hands-on farmer. I’m eager to learn, adapt, and contribute to the farming community.
