Derek Rulon
President
Junior
WHAT'S UP WEST VALLEY!!! My name is Derek Rulon, and I am serving as YOUR chapter President! I'm a junior this year. Throughout my FFA journey, I have competed at state for both creed and impromptu speaking and I am also on my chapter's meat judging team. I show market and breeding sheep and sell lambs from my own flock to local 4-H members. I've grown up in the outdoors so naturally I love to hunt and fish all the time. I also compete in cross country in the fall and track in the spring. After high school I aspire to be a wildlife veterinarian. FFA has truly changed my life and I look forward to an amazing year as your president!
