Hi, I’m Cat! I founded Ranch Legacy to help preserve family farms and ranches.

For years, I've worked alongside ranchers who deeply wanted to pass on their hard-earned legacy but lacked the resources or guidance to make that transition successful. My mission is to fill that gap and create a future where heritage and sustainability thrive together.

Devoted to the land and the law, I am a rancher and attorney anchored in the heart of the American West. My country childhood with days spent galloping horses over rolling green hills and working alongside my family instilled a deep appreciation for the agricultural lifestyle and the balance of nature, tradition, and hard work.

After earning my law degree from a top-tier school, I spent time in legal service before transitioning to hands-on conservation and nonprofit work. Today, I manage a community grazing cattle ranch in Montana with my fiancé, a 4th-generation producer.

This diverse background has equipped me with the skills to navigate complex legal landscapes, particularly in land use transitions and management. My main focus has always been advocating for families that live off the land—ensuring their rights and interests are protected for generations to come.
