Project Assistants

 

Joan Schneider

Comes to the project from MSU’s Contract andGrants Office, where she worked for 25 years. Her experience has already proved to be invaluable as RosBREED has 11 subawards and must meet and document 1:1 matching funding requirements. Joan states, “After working with research funding solely from the contractual angle for so many years, it is really enlightening to be involved in such a vast and far-reaching program. Since I am not a scientist, I appreciate the opportunity to be that much closer to the science of RosBREED and know that I can contribute to the success of the program.”

Audrey Sebolt

Has been Amy’s research assistant since 1999 and is involved in the field aspects of RosBREED, as Amy is also one of the 12 RosBREED demonstration breeders. Audrey’s project assistant responsibilities include assisting with the organization of conferences and workshops, proofing project reports, recording meeting minutes, and editing presentations. She also assists the Extension/Outreach Team leader Cholani Weebadde with newsletters, attending local conferences, and the development of handouts, website updates, and brochures.
