Abbey holds two bachelor’s degrees from Colorado State University in Journalism and Media Communication and Communication Studies. She plays a key role on the AgNext team, providing event and administrative support to help advance AgNext’s mission of sharing and expanding its research with the community and beyond.

Before joining AgNext, Abbey served as the Director of Events in the CSU Athletic Department and later as the Assistant Director of Engagement at the CSU Alumni Association. In these roles, she collaborated closely with the College of Agricultural Sciences, the Office of Engagement & Extension, and various agricultural companies—experiences that fueled her passion for the industry and led her to AgNext.
