Scott Kenneth Jenkins Public History Graduate Student

Career

Scott spent fifteen years working in agriculture/dairy production in various capacities including dairy herd manager, dairy product manufacturing, and marketing. As a result of a life-long interest/passion for American history, Scott returned to Mississippi State University in 2015 to complete his undergraduate degree in history. Scott also devotes volunteer time with USAID in on- going international programs in northern Guatemala related to Mayan decedent marginalized communities. With my lifelong interest in agriculture and history, I hope to pursue a position as a curator, site manger, or cultural resources specialist in a museum or historic site. As a Public History professional, I hope to combine my background in agriculture and education in a way to create unique and effective interpretation for visitors at historic sites.
