In this week’s episode of The Modern Farming Podcast, we sit down with Mykaela Billingsworth, a University of Florida student on the path to becoming an agricultural educator. Mykaela shares how her early involvement in FFA programs sparked a lifelong passion for agriculture and inspired her commitment to teaching the next generation. She reflects on her experience raising and showing livestock, and how those hands-on skills translate into her work equipping students to participate in county fairs and agricultural competitions. Now serving as an intern at Bok Academy in Polk County and nearing the completion of her degree, Mykaela discusses the journey that brought her to this point and her vision for shaping the future of agricultural education.
