Hello, my name is Macy Loecke and I am the Foundation's 2023 Public Relations Intern! I am thrilled to get to work and see the fair from a diferent aspect. Most of all, I am excited to meet and interact with some awesome Iowans and fair-goers. Currently, I am a senior at Iowa State University where I am majoring in Agricultural Communications and minoring in Public Relations. I will be graduating next December and following graduation I plan to obtain a career related to Agricultural Marketing and Communications. I am happy to be a part of such a great team, and hope to gain lots of valuable skills! 

Throughout my time at Iowa State, I have been involved in various clubs and organizations such as Collegiate 4H, Block and Bridle, the Agricultural Business Club and PAS. These organizations have helped me to meet some wondeful people and build many great connections as well as my professional portfolio. In my free time, you can find me hanging out with my family or animals as I am a big animal lover. 

I grew up in Northeastern Iowa and graduated from West Delaware in Manchester, Iowa. I was involved in track, cross country, golf and student council. I was also involved in 4H, FFA and county council where I discovered my passion for agriculture through exhibiting beef and swine at the county and state fair. I have been lucky enough to attend the fair every year since I was a little girl and it holds many special memories. I am so happy to be back and hope to give back to an organization that gave so much to me!
