I’m Mica Veihman, and I have worked in Monsanto’s Public Affairs group for the last four years. I’ve been fortunate to provide communications support to various parts of our organization, including our oilseeds (soybeans and canola), herbicide, alfalfa and vegetable businesses. The most fun (and frustrating) part of my job is helping the highly skilled, knowledgeable and passionate people we have on staff communicate what they are doing to the rest of the world. Not an easy task, but a necessary one! As a mom, I’m especially interested in conversations and dialogue about the world’s increasing population and resource challenges because of the impact on my children. When I’m not pulling my hair out over the latest Internet rumor, I’m happily chasing my firstborn – a boy – around the house. My husband and I love discovering great new restaurants as well as hosting barbecues for friends and family (he cooks, I clean). I also love to read, dance, run and water ski.
