  I was very fortunate to be able to still work at my summer internship, while all the Coronavirus epidemic was happening. Some of my friends and classmates were not so lucky. I worked with the procurement team at the Thomasville and Moultrie mills. I enjoyed and learned a lot about how they supply their mills with wood. It was also good experience on how to manage multiple logging crews, while also going to check out potential timber sales.

  I started this job in the summer of 2016 and have been learning skills that will help me in the future for land management. I learned how to spray chemicals on a tractor and in ponds, I learned about managing pine forests and taking out hardwoods, I learned about prescribed burns and cover growth. I also was entrusted to maintain the owner's small farm by taking care of his animals, crops and organizing his barn.

Rosemary Plantation

  • Nov 2011 - Aug 2020

  My dad is the manager of Rosemary and I have grown up on the plantation. I started working there when I was very young and have helped them with various projects including work on tractors, mechanical breakdowns of equipment, use of power tools: weedeaters, chainsaws, leaf blowers, etc. Working there taught me the value of hard work and I continue to expand my skills there every time I go home.

  I enjoyed working with the F4 Tech company and received a lot of hands-on training. I was able to work with some of their staff on hurricane Micheal clean up in Florida and South Georgia. The cruising work I did for them was not conventional cruising, the plots had more in depth analysis of the stand as a whole compared to just the standing volume.
