Williams joins WYLR team

Calli (Pritchard) Williams joins the Wyoming Livestock Roundup this week as livestock field services representative. Originally from Aurora, S.D., Calli and her husband Tate own and operate their purebred Angus seedstock operation, TW Angus, near Mitchell, S.D. 

Considered millennial ranchers, Calli and Tate built their operation from the ground up and offer bulls for sale each spring via private treaty and market beef direct to consumers. Together, they have a two-and-a-half-year-old son, Jack, and are expecting their second child in August.  

Calli’s passion for agriculture started at a young age as she was active in both 4-H and FFA. She showed beef cattle, pigs and sheep during her 4-H career and served as the first female president of her FFA chapter.  

Calli continued her involvement and leadership in the beef industry through serving as the South Dakota Beef Ambassador in 2009 as well as internships with both Zoetis and Certified Angus Beef. Currently, Calli holds leadership roles for the Davison-Hanson Cattlemen’s Association and the Young Cattlemen of South Dakota.  

 “I have a strong passion for the beef industry and agricultural communications,” Calli shared. “I am excited to combine those passions by helping producers market their livestock and continue sharing the story of agriculture.” 

She adds, “I look forward to representing cattlemen across the region as a member of the Wyoming Livestock Roundup team.”  

Publisher Dennis Sun notes, “Everyone on the Roundup team is excited to have Calli. Her passion for agriculture fits right in and we look forward to working with Calli.”  

Calli is serving cattlemen in North Dakota, South Dakota, Nebraska and Colorado. She can be reached at calli@wylr.net or 605-695-1990.
