My name is Fernando Soler Diaz, and I am originally from Honduras. I earned my bachelor’s degree in Agricultural Sciences and Production from Zamorano University in 2022. Following graduation, I joined North Carolina State University as a Graduate Student and Research Assistant to pursue my Master’s degree in the Department of Animal Science. My focus has been on swine, with a co-major in Nutrition and a minor in Statistics. As I approach graduation, I am excited to continue my academic journey at NC State, where I will begin a PhD program in May 2025.
