Dr. Kelley Ranly, Texas 4-H and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension

Dr. Kelley Ranly serves as an Extension Program Specialist and Leadership Coordinator for Texas 4-H and Texas A&M AgriLife Extension, where she leads the charge in developing and coordinating statewide agricultural leadership programs for high school students across Texas. From overseeing Texas 4-H Horse Validation to playing a key role in the Texas State 4-H Horse Show, Kelley is deeply invested in creating meaningful opportunities for the next generation of agricultural leaders. Kelley’s journey with Texas A&M AgriLife Extension began while she was still a student at Texas A&M University, where she worked in steer and heifer validation before transitioning into youth leadership programming. That early experience laid the foundation for a career centered around mentorship, education, and impact. Raised in agriculture, Kelley discovered her passion for the western way of life at a young age through showing livestock and rodeo. While at Texas A&M, she earned her Bachelor of Science in Animal Science with a minor in Business Administration, followed by a Master of Agribusiness. As a four-year member of the Ranch Horse Team, she found her true niche in the equine industry and developed a deep appreciation for reined cow horses. Kelley recently completed her PhD in Animal and Natural Resource Sciences at Tarleton State University, where her research focused on developing a leadership program for students interested in the equine industry—further expanding her impact on the future of agriculture. Passionate about student success, Kelley works day in and day out to create pathways for young people through Texas AgriLife Extension and the Texas Youth Livestock Ambassador program.  Books Recommended:  Leaders Eat Last  Story Worthy  Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things
