Howdy!

In Aggieland, it's a traditional greeting. It's second nature for me to use it now, no matter where my travels take me. I've gone across the Brazos Valley, Texas, the nation and the world telling stories and making sure people have information they need to make the best decisions for themselves, their families and their businesses. Thanks for coming to learn more about me and my award-winning work.
