Mandy is an independent contractor as a sales representative for Agribusiness Publications. Agribusiness Publications originated in 1982 and is the publisher of two agricultural magazines: Agribusiness Dairyman and the California Fresh Fruit and Raisin News. In her capacity, Mandy initiates and coordinates the creation of marketing materials, assists with editorial development, and coordinates tradeshow materials.

Mandy also attended the American Agri-Women Syngenta Crop Protection Leadership at its Best Program this past April in Greensboro North Carolina.

Her interest in traveling and learning about other cultures has inspired her to learn Spanish and Italian. She also acquired German language skills while living and working in Germany as the International Communications Director for Asia and Southern Regions with Westfalia GmbH. Her desire to learn about other cultures has lead her to over a dozen countries.

Mandy graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Madison in 2001 with a Bachelors of Science degree in Agricultural Journalism with an emphasis in Sales and Marketing.

Mandy and her fiancé, Scott, live in Kingsburg California. Scott shares Mandy's passion for agriculture and farms wine grapes and almonds.
