Being born and raised in Fairfield, Texas, Cindy has spent her entire life in ranching operations, only leaving the rural lifestyle to attain her college education at Texas A&M University, where she graduated Magna Cum Laude with a Bachelor of Science degree.
Cindy, along with her best friend and partner, Steve, began Emmons Ranch in 1975, the summer they were married. Their dream and goal from the beginning, was to raise the very best Beefmaster cattle possible and make ranching their family lifestyle. Their three sons, Bodie, Corey and Clay, were raised on the ranch, and now their six grandchildren are also following the same lifestyle. Emmons Ranch has been producing and promoting Beefmaster cattle for 45 years.
They host an annual Bull Sale and Female Production Sale. Cindy has been very active in BBU as well as her local community, serving on numerous committees and chairing events. She is a member of First Baptist Church, Streetman, Texas.
