Kelly Sidoryk, Professional HMI Certified Educator, Owner/Operator at KW Cattle Co. Ltd.
Kelly and her husband Mike live near Lloydminster, Alberta, Canada where they operate a family ranch running owned and custom yearling cattle with a small cow herd. They also have another ranch near Debden, Saskatchewan. Kelly has been involved with Holistic Management for close to 25 years. She became an HMI Certified Educator in the late 1980s and has taught a number of courses and has worked with many family producers and management groups. One area of focus for Kelly has been the "human" piece, particularly in the area of succession planning as many operations and teams work through the process of transitioning to the next generation. Kelly’s father, Dennis Wobeser was an HMI Board member and upon his end of term, Kelly took his place as HMI’s Canadian representative. Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kellysidoryk/
