Goals and interests
- Career goal
My end goal intent after college is to run my own ranch where I will sell clubby and purebred show calves. I woul like to be running over 200 head of cattle at the end of the upcoming 10 years. I plan to advertise my business through online sales in which I will photograph the sale animals, through social media, and at stock shows around the nation.
- Outside the classroom
My favorite hobby is showing cattle on a professional level. I buy show steers that I show for one year until I sell them at their market date. I am also very fond of photography. I have taken numerous sale pictures for cattle companies here in Washington state.
