Get to know Becca

Topic: Leadership

By Becca Oase, NDFB Northwest Field Representative

“Life seems to change when you least expect it.”

This is a pretty common phrase, but man it hit me hard these past few months. Just a few weeks ago I was working in the local county Extension office as the administrative assistant to the county Extension Agent. I loved working with producers, 4-H members, and the rural community, but in July I was offered a job opportunity that I couldn’t ignore; NDFB’s Northwest Field Representative.

On August 19, I started working for NDFB. I was given my list of counties and started down my call list. Meeting each county’s representatives has been a blast! Of course, a new career path always comes with its challenges, but having people around you who truly want to see you succeed is what makes it so worth it. NDFB’s staff and members have been so welcoming, and I truly appreciate it!
