The Angus Media board of directors recently named Clay Zwilling president of the organization to guide the company as it delivers industry-leading education, information and marketing to the beef industry.
Most recently, Zwilling was the chief operating officer for Walton Webcasting, where he helped develop the organization during a time of rapid growth. Prior to that, he was the chief executive officer of the National Swine Registry working with the executive committee, breed boards and membership to create and execute their vision and mission. Zwilling started his professional career with Farm Credit Illinois as the director of marketplace education and development.
“Angus breeders are stewards of both their herds and family ranches, as well as the Angus legacy,” Zwilling said. “Angus Media plays an important role in telling their stories and giving them cutting-edge, cost-effective marketing tools to achieve their goals.”
Zwilling holds a master’s degree from Texas A&M University in Agricultural Leadership, Education and Communication. He did his undergraduate work at Oklahoma State University and Lake Land College in Illinois. Zwilling will assume his duties as president on May 8 and will relocate to the St. Joseph area with his wife, Deanna, and their 2-year-old daughter, Allie.
