About this listen

Ph.D. student Mason Marshall and undergraduate student Trishia Nguyen discuss what influenced their decision to pursue Horticulture as well as what they wish to accomplish in the future in the field of horticulture.

Mason Marshall is a PhD student in the department of horticulture. He is from Odessa, Texas and ventured to Texas A&M in 2017 for his bachelor's degree in horticulture. Currently in his third year, Mason's research aims to characterize the phenotypic variation in Ratibida columnifera, the prairie coneflower, along with cut-flower and production studies. After graduation, he plans to find a lecturer position at a University.

Trishia Nguyen is a first generation B.S Horticultural Sciences student entering her senior year. Shifting her focus around a couple times, she has found her place in landscape design. After graduating with her Bachelor's she looks forward to pursuing a Masters in Landscape Architecture. Trishia would like to emphasize that horticulture is for anyone! As someone with limited exposure to the industry outside of the foods that she ate and the botanical gardens she visited, attending Texas A&M has opened up her world to how ever-present horticulture is in every aspect of her life.
