Meet
Megan UNDERWOOD You may see a new face if you’re attending summer events. RAAA is proud to announce Megan Underwood as the RAAA summer intern. Underwood was raised on her family’s farm in Campbellsville, Kentucky, where she started her own herd of Hereford cattle to show and sell nationally. She graduated from Kansas State University with a bachelor’s of science in animal sciences and industry. During her undergraduate career, Megan was a member of the 2020 K-State meat judging team, served as a College of Agriculture Ambassador and was recognized as the Block and Bridle Rookie of the Year. Underwood is currently pursuing her master’s of science in agricultural education and communication at Kansas State University. Her research focuses on developing strategic communication strategies for beef breed associations to meet producer demands. Megan brings a communication knowledge to the team through her past experiences with the Beef Improvement Federation, Drovers and RAAA convention. Among Underwood’s summer duties, she will be providing media coverage and taking photos at NAJRAE. “Junior nationals is truly the best week of the summer, and I am so excited to experience the Legend of the Reds as the RAAA communications intern.” Please give Megan the Red Angus welcome when you see her in Chickasha!
