Work History
Extension Intern
Clemson Extension Agribusiness
Pendleton
05.2025 - 08.2025
- During my internship, I utilized FINPACK software to conduct in-depth financial analysis of existing financial statements for farmers, evaluating key metrics and ratios to support economic decision-making. I also developed hypothetical financial statements and budgets for a beef cow-calf operation in South Carolina, incorporating recent market data for livestock, input costs, machinery, and land values. This budget projected revenues, expenses, and net returns, factoring in recent regional economic trends, and different loan repayment schedules. My work strengthened my skills in agricultural finance, market analysis, enterprise budgeting, software-driven financial planning, communication, and time management.

Using Microsoft Excel, I cleaned, organized, and categorized data based on crop types and county, then formatted them into clear templates for internal and external use. This role helped sharpen my Microsoft Excel and market research skills, improved my attention to detail, and gave me hands-on experience turning raw data into a meaningful tool for agricultural business decision-making.
