In this role, she bridges the gap between research and practical on-farm management by developing resources and programs tailored to the needs of dairy farmers.

After working as a dairy cattle nutritionist, Katelyn joined UW-Madison Extension, where she enjoys helping farms find functional, research-backed solutions to everyday challenges.
