Officers

Howdy, my name is Owen Sanders. I am a senior, Majoring in Animal Science with a Minor in Agribusiness Entrepreneurship. As the President of the Saddle and Sirloin Club, It is my goal to serve our students by providing them with an environment where they can learn, network and develop as leaders in our industry. My passion for the livestock industry has grown through my involvement in the Saddle and Sirloin Club, on judging teams, as an intern, and in classes at Texas A&M University. My desire for students to share in the same enlightening experiences I did drives me to be the best leader I can for the Saddle and Sirloin Club.

Howdy, my name is Grace Real and I am a senior majoring in Animal Science and Agricultural Communications and Journalism. For the past three years, I have been actively involved in the Saddle & Sirloin Club, serving as both Public Relations Officer and Secretary. Through these leadership roles, I have developed strong skills in communication, organization and member engagement while discovering a passion for agricultural advocacy and building connections within the industry. I am incredibly grateful for the opportunities, experiences and friendships this organization has given me, and I am excited for the opportunity to serve as Vice President while continuing to enhance our events and support our members

Howdy, my name is Turner Sanders. I am a junior Animal Science major from Huntington, Texas. For the past two years, I have been involved with the Saddle and Sirloin Club. This past year, I was fortunate enough to serve as the Public Relations Officer. Through this position, I have strived to provide members with a highly impactful experience that will leave them with new skills and connections within the Agriculture Industry. The community I have found within this club thus far is second to none, and I hope I have left new members with the same feeling this past year and in the years to come. Saddle and Sirloin has done so much for me professionally so far, and I want to continue giving our members the same opportunities and experiences!

Howdy, my name is Jayci Phillips, and I am a sophomore Animal Science major from Mexia, Texas. I am currently on the science route and plan to minor in pre-med while deciding between veterinary medicine and a medical career. I was raised on my family’s farms and ranches and have shown cattle across the country since I was 8 years old. I also grew up riding horses and rodeoing, which strengthened my passion for agriculture. This past year, I became heavily involved in Saddle & Sirloin through events and committees, which inspired me to run for officer. I will be serving as Treasurer this upcoming year and am excited to become even more involved in this organization and the agricultural industry!
