Instructors

Jordan Steele RFP Instructor, Director of Operations for RMC

Jordan Steele grew up on a cow-calf operation near Aladdin, WY before completing his Master’s Degree in Agricultural Economics at the University of Wyoming. After college, Jordan worked for the Kansas Farm Management Association through Kansas State University for 7 ½ years where he specialized in agricultural business recordkeeping, financial analysis and interpretation, and income tax preparation for farmers and ranchers in 17 counties of NW Kansas. Being familiar with Ranching for Profit principles since college, Jordan attended his first full RFP school in 2017 and was instantly hooked on how well the program delivery ties together the people, money, and production areas of ranching.

Jordan and his wife Jori welcomed their first child in August 2022 and are excited to be back in the Cowboy State of Wyoming. Both have a heart for lifelong learning and continue to improve on their own ranch management skills. In their free time, Jordan and Jori enjoy team roping, hunting, and anything else horseback.


Andrew Morris RFP Instructor, Executive Link Coordinator for RMC

Andrew Morris is the Executive Link Coordinator for Ranch Management Consultants. He grew up in Ohio on a beef and crop farm. He attended Ohio State University, Ag Tech Institute, majoring in beef management. When he married his wife Abby in 1996 they began their own beef operation with registered and commercial cow/calf and a retail grass finished beef enterprise. While searching for ways to improve their business they found RMC and attended their first Ranching for Profit School in 2017. Armed with new tools and a desire to expand the business, Andrew retired from a firefighting career and moved their operation to southeast Oklahoma in 2018 and began ranching full time. With the help of Abby and their 3 children Cole, Josie, and Lane they developed a working ranch from the ground up with cow/calf, small ruminant and hunting enterprises. Andrew and Abby have been Executive Link members since 2019 and credit much of their success to the program. Andrew is passionate about the experience he has had in EL and is excited to be able to share the same opportunities with others. Andrew and Abby are taking advantage of their success and currently living near Salmon, Idaho and enjoying all that comes with life in the Rockies.
