Margo Overholt-Seckel

Margo Long is a program manager with Ohio 4-H with a focus on workforce development, life, college, and career readiness. Her primary responsibilities are to develop, implement, promote, and evaluate a high-quality workforce development and associated college and career readiness program for Ohio 4-H and families. 

She grew up spending time in both western Pennsylvania and northeast Ohio. Being a 4-H member for more than 10 years inspired her love for agriculture and positive youth development. It wasn’t until she worked as an Extension professional in northeast Indiana when she found an interest in introducing young people to STEM careers through hands-on learning activities.

She has a strong belief in Extension and its purpose to integrate research into our daily lives and to help solve today’s challenges for a better future.

Margo received her bachelor’s degree in agricultural communication from Ohio State University and a master’s degree in agricultural education from Oklahoma State University. She is currently a Ph.D. student within Ohio State’s Department of Agricultural Communication, Education, and Leadership.
