My name is Dane Miller. I am a Senior studying Agricultural Systems Technology with a focus on Mechanical Systems and Precision Ag at Iowa State University.
The courses I am taking my last semester (in Spring 2008) are: CRP 270, Music 102, TSM 337 - Hydraulics, MIS 330 - Intro to Information Systems, and TSM 399 - Internship Reflection/Assessment. I originally created this Web page for my AST 203 class.

I grew up on a farm outside of the small town of Bristow, Iowa. I attended high school at Greene, played football as a running back and ran the 400 low hurdles in track for the Rams. Our football team made it to State in 2002, and I made it to State in track for the 4x800 relay in 2003 and for the 400 low hurdles in 2004. I designed my two class T-shirts and the Homecoming flats for all four years. I was also active in band, High School Student Council, 4-H, Luther League, and the Library Teen Board.

Following high school, I attended Iowa State University and majored in Ag Systems Technology. Through my college years, I have worked for ISU Dining service, ISU ITS, ISU Rec. Intramurals, the Iowa State Center, and the College as a Peer Mentor. I have been a member of the AST Club, announced the kiddie tractor pull at VEISHEA, helped with Lawnmower Service Days and Snowblower Servive Days, and visited the CBOT on a club trip.

I enjoy solving problems and working with new innovative projects. I want to work in either of two main areas of Agriculture: Machines - Product Engineering, specialization, or Evaluation, and Precision Ag - Product Specialization, Applications, or Research. I am currently working with ISU Information Technology Services at the Communications Building where I work as the Lead Night Service to answer trouble calls and do projection jobs in the evening. I am also continuing to work part time with Pioneer Hi-Bred International, Inc. in Johnston, Iowa where I just completed a seven month internship in a newly expanding Precision Ag area.

On July 7, 2007, I married my best friend, and now my beautiful bride, Brooke Elizabeth. We are currently living in Ames, Iowa and finishing our last semesters at ISU.
