My name is Emmy Arnold and I am 18 years old.  I am currently enrolled at Utah State University in Logan Utah and I am majoring in Agriculture Education.  When I graduate, I hope to become an Ag. Teacher, as well as continue the family farm.  I have lived on a Pig farm my whole life!  I always loved (and still love) helping my dad and grandpa out on the family farm.  When I was eight years old, I started showing pigs with the 4-H program and fell in love!  When I started High school I became involved in the FFA program, where I was the Historian my Junior year and the President my Senior year.
