Introduction

Lindsey Mizia, a proud 2009 graduate of Woodbridge High School, serves as the Regional Continuous Improvement Manager for Perdue. She oversees Continuous Improvement departments at five of Perdue’s processing locations, including the Milford, DE facility.

CTE Journey

Lindsey’s passion for production agriculture was sparked through Woodbridge’s Animal Science program. Without a farm background, the program offered her a unique opportunity to explore her interests in science and animals. “The Animal Science program was the perfect blend of the two,” she shared. Her experience in CTE inspired her to pursue a postsecondary degree in Animal Science and ultimately led her to a rewarding career with Perdue.

Career Impact

Over her career with Perdue, Lindsey has excelled in various roles, applying the skills and knowledge she developed through CTE. “I’m confident that none of it would have been possible without my early start with CTE and Animal Science during my time at Woodbridge,” she said. Lindsey’s story is a testament to how CTE makes education engaging and equips students with industry-ready skills for success after graduation.
