Jessy Barger

Major: Agricultual Business

Year in School: Junior

Career Plans: Agriculture Sales.

Hobbies/Interests: I have a few hobbies and interests outside of livestock judging. I showed livestock growing up which is defiantly my favorite hobby as I still help out my younger sister and cousins. I also love to hunt deer and elk on the ranch with my family. With being an ag major am very interested in all things livestock production and ranching. At home I am active in things such as roping, calving, fixing fence and putting out mineral. In the past summer I was fortunate to be asked to judge several jackpots and county fairs and I thoroughly enjoy that opportunity and plan to continue.

Why did you choose to participate on the livestock judging team?

Participating on the livestock judging team was one of the major reasons I chose to come to UW. I was active in livestock judging through 4-H and FFA growing up and fell in love with it! After high school I went to Casper College and was a member of the livestock judging team there for two years. I decided that I was going to continue judging at the university level and after my visit with dedicated coach Landon Eldridge I knew that UW was going to be a great fit for me.
