What is your favorite thing about the Farmer School?
Everyone is collaborative, everyone works together and makes sure that if you have a missing link or something, everyone works together. They make sure that they help each other, even when some things seem like individual tasks. We all work together to get things done.
What was the FYIC Client Challenge like?
When we first got the challenge question, my team got together decided that we wanted to make it all the way through, that was our goal. Having that established at the beginning really set us up for what we wanted to do. We organized ourselves, made calendar reminders to help each other to know when we're meeting, designated who's doing what. It was long, a lot of long hours, more than we expected. But honestly, it felt like it was worth it, seeing our hard work pay off in the end was really fun and really helpful.
What was your biggest takeaway from being in the FYIC?
To not be afraid to ask for help. Originally, I was kind of nervous asking for help in the early stages, but later on, I realized that it's okay to ask for help and lot of people are really willing to help you if you just open your mouth and ask. I just feel learning to just be open and be able to share your experiences was really important.
