In the end, I’m sure CCYA has given me many more life lessons and skills, but the few I highlighted directly link me to how I ended up as a Cattlemen’s Young Leader. With the beef industry knowledge I gained as a junior, the leadership skills I found within myself, being confident in introducing myself to new people, and truly developing a passion for this breed and for the beef industry has helped me get where I am today, and I owe a lot of it to the amazing Canadian Charolais Youth Association for getting me here.
