Cole Bauman

Hi, my name is Cole Bauman, and I’m a junior at Liberty Center High School in Ohio. I currently serve as the Vice President of my FFA chapter and I am so excited to share my FFA journey as part of FFA in the USA. Through FFA, I’ve competed in public speaking and job interview contests at the district and state levels, and I enjoy helping lead my chapter’s community service initiatives. Outside of FFA, I’m involved in a variety of activities that keep me busy and growing as a leader. I work as a producer for my school’s sports broadcasting company, and I’m active in my church, 4-H, student government, quiz team, Future Business Leaders of America, and Fellowship of Christian Athletes. Each of these opportunities has challenged me to step out of my comfort zone, develop new skills, and work with others toward shared goals. FFA has given me experiences that have built my confidence, sharpened my leadership abilities, and connected me with people who inspire me. I’m looking forward to sharing stories from my chapter/community through this national platform and highlighting how FFA is shaping the next generation of leaders.
