Connor McCauley
For those new to reading my newsletter, my name is Connor McCauley & I'm married to a 5th generation rancher. I write these articles from my perspective a lot of the time. As someone raised in the house of a stockbroker in southeast Pennsylvania, my perspective contrasts with my new Texas ranching life. In 2015, I moved to Colorado & pursued a career with the ski resorts. That is where I met my wonderful wife, Helen. In 2021, we moved to her family's ranch full-time & I became a mix of things from ranch hand to marketer to retail manager.
Come along with me as we explore & learn about the Texas ranching life. I'm glad you're here!
