My name is Evelyn Wyse.  I am 15 years old and attend Mount Horeb High School. I live on my family’s farm near Blanchardville, Wisconsin with my parents and two brothers. On our farm, we raise Simmental Beef Cattle and crops, but my biggest passion has always been Brown Swiss Dairy Cattle.

I started showing Brown Swiss cattle when I was 9 years old through my first 4-H dairy project.  Ever since, I have loved being involved in the dairy industry. I currently own and care for several cattle and have shown at local shows, state shows, and the World Dairy Expo. Through showing cattle, I have learned responsibility, hard work, sportsmanship, and the importance of meeting new people and making connections in the dairy community.

I am active in FFA, gymnastics, and many other school activities. Being involved in these activities has helped me grow as a leader and become more confident working with others. I also enjoy spending time with friends and family and helping out on the farm.
