I am pleased to announce that I was selected for the Oklahoma Agricultural Leadership Program (OALP) 2012 – 2014 class. The OALP is a program ran through Oklahoma State University that seeks to gather future leaders for the state’s agricultural and related businesses. I am glad to accept this honor and will represent southwest Oklahoma well as the first estate planning and tax attorney from Altus (and possibly the whole state) to try to tie in knowledge of tax planning and lawyer skills with shaping the future of agriculture.
Our class will be taking regional trips throughout Oklahoma to learn of agricultural production in different parts of the state as well as an international trip. The location of the international trip has not yet been announced, so stay tuned for updates on where it will be.
Other notable alumni from the Altus area are: Sen. Mike Schulz, Matt Muller, Keeff Felty, Rodger Kerr, Kyle Dorton, Monty Thornbrough, and Mark Holder.
