Samantha was elected Promotion and Education Chair in 2024. She also serves on the NDFB Board of Directors.

Sam lives in Bismarck and works for First International Bank & Trust as a Senior Credit Analyst where her main focus is underwriting processes and procedures for agricultural lending. She grew up active in 4-H, raising and showing registered Red Angus cattle. Even though she is not directly involved with production agriculture, she stays connected by helping her family with their show cattle operation and volunteering for any 4-H event related to livestock that she can.

Darin lives on a farm near Crystal, N.D. He is the K-12 Vocal/Instrumental Music Instructor at Cavalier Public School, is the clerk/treasurer for Crystal Township and operates a fun bus business. He has lived on the family farm all his life and continues to help neighbors during harvest.

He says he became involved in Farm Bureau because misinformation about farming and ranching is so widespread. "Agriculture is the lifeblood of our culture, country, and world," he says.

Jazmin grew up on a small farmstead in Georgetown, Minn. She developed a deep appreciation for the agriculture industry from an early age.

Emily Casner and her husband, Matt, are from Minot. She is an ag educator and says working on her grandparents’ farm sparked her love of agriculture.

Whitney and her husband, Blake, live in Watford City. Whitney currently works for the McKenzie County Public School District as a fifth-grade teacher. When she’s not teaching, she joins her husband at the ranch and helps raise registered and commercial red angus. Whitney didn’t grow up in agriculture, but her small town roots and husband’s willingness to show her the ropes has allowed her to make farming and ranching a significant part of her life.  She is eager to use her knowledge and skillset as an educator, as well as her ranching experiences to begin promoting and educating others about the important role agriculture plays in our everyday lives.

The Wolds have one child.
