My name is Jerikka Freeman and I am from Fort Myers, FL. I am a new resident of Sargent County and previously worked 2 years for the Department of Veteran Affairs in Orlando, FL. After graduating from Valencia College in 2019 with a degree in Graphic Design, I spent the last 5 years conducting simulated healthcare practices, preventative risk assessments, and quality management analyses for private and public healthcare centers nationwide. I hope to integrate what I have learned to the NRCS and find innovative ways to benefit Sargent County's producers. In my free time I enjoy reading, cooking, exploring my new town, and participating in community events. It is the goal of the Wild Rice Soil Conservation District to educate and help the local land users (for conservation of soil) right here in Sargent County. We do this by offering a variety of services and making available various technical, financial, and educational resources. USDA is an equal opportunity provider, employer, and lender. J-18808-Ljbffr
