The Red Angus Association of America, Denver, Colorado, has added three new staff members.
They are Jaeden Schneider as membership and accounts receivable specialist, and Elizabeth Caskey and Jesse Henson as commercial marketing specialists.
These new hires bring a diverse mix of industry experience, energy and customer-focused commitment to their respective roles, further strengthening RAAA’s service to its membership and commercial partners.
Schneider, a recent graduate of Colorado State University with a degree in animal science, previously worked in ranch management and retail animal health.
“I’m thrilled to be joining the RAAA team and to support an organization that plays such a vital role in the beef industry,” Schneider said. “I’m especially excited to connect with our members and help ensure they receive the best service and support possible.”
In the commercial marketing department, Caskey and Henson will serve as key points of contact for feeder cattle programs, marketing strategies and producer outreach.
Caskey has a bachelor’s degree in animal and veterinary sciences with a concentration in animal agribusiness from Clemson University and a minor in business administration. She recently relocated to Billings, Montana, where she will focus on supporting Red Angus producers in the Northwest region.
“I’m truly excited to join the RAAA team and help promote the Red Angus breed, especially through our feeder cattle programs,” Caskey said. “I’m passionate about supporting commercial cattle producers and look forward to helping them capture more value for their cattle while strengthening the visibility of Red Angus genetics in the market.”
Henson earned a bachelor’s degree in animal science from Oklahoma State University and an associate degree in agriculture from Connors State College. He brings extensive livestock evaluation and education experience, most recently serving as livestock judging coach at Auburn University. He will be based in Stillwater, Oklahoma, serving commercial producers in the Southern Plains and parts of the Gulf Coast regions.
“It’s an exciting time for the Red Angus breed, and I’m honored to be joining the RAAA commercial marketing team,” Henson said. “I look forward to building relationships with producers and the chance to promote Red Angus genetics.”
