SPEAKER

Cassidy Johnston

I grew up in the Denver metro area (population 3 million), and was pretty sure I was going to be a professional snowboarder (ha), a fashion designer (less ha but still ha) or an environmental lawyer when I grew up. Spoiler (but no surprise): I did not end up doing any of those things. What I did end up doing is falling in love with ranching, marrying a cowboy, and never looking back. Along the way, in between raising baby boys and cows and keeping the wheels on, I’ve discovered a passion for connecting to people outside of the cattle industry that I call home.
