What are your goals in your role at your company?

There is no greater cause than the fight to end hunger around the world – everyone deserves the moral right of nutritious food. We must do everything in our power to address hunger here in Iowa, the U.S. and around the world – it is an easy goal to say, but as history has shown us, incredibly hard to achieve. 

What’s your biggest passion, and why?

Inspiring others can dramatically impact your own life. Through my professional career and volunteer work I have been able to see that firsthand. I find such a passion working with others and then seeing them succeed, specifically helping them to find a path in life. We all need a little guidance from time to time, and having a hand in that is rewarding.
