Red Angus Association of America promotes Oliver

"Rachael exemplifies the hard work and dedication to our producers that we want this team to be known for," said Kelly Smith, RAAA director of commercial marketing. "Rachael has taken the lead on many projects, and we appreciate her integral role in building our marketing team."

Oliver joined RAAA in January 2021 as a commercial marketing specialist. From Savage, Montana, she comes from and continues to be a part of her family's beef operation. Prior to her joining RAAA, she spent several years working with cattle ranchers to reach their genetic improvement goals at Select Sires and Trans Ova Genetics.

A 2017 graduate of Oklahoma State University, Oliver was an active member of the OSU Collegiate Cattlewomen and served as secretary. Now, she enjoys volunteering with area livestock judging teams and spending time helping her family with backgrounding and developing heifers in their feedlot.

Oliver has eagerly jumped into her new role. "I am excited to move into this role," said Oliver. " I'm thankful for the opportunity RAAA has given me to help cultivate my career."
