Terryn has deep roots in raising cattle.Her grandparents raised registered Simmental cattle, while her grandfather managed COE Cattle Company in Tilden, NE.Upon his retirement in the early 1990’s, Terryn’s father returned to the feedlot where he still works today.Throughout high-school Terryn helped at the feedlot, where her passion grew for taking care of cattle.
After high-school she attended the University of Nebraska, Lincoln, where she received a Bachelor of Science in Animal Science with an emphasis in feedlot management.Terryn met her husband while in college and her Feedlot Management Specialization Internship at Dinklage Feed Yard Inc., Broadwater Division moved them to western Nebraska.
