Nathan Rosenau: Born and raised on a wheat farm on the beautiful Camas Prairie of Idaho near the town site of Winona. After graduating from the University of Idaho in 2011 with a degree in Environmental Science and a minor in anthropology, I went to work in the grain industry for Columbia Grain for 8 years where I sharpened my teeth mainly in the PNW with a short stint in the heart of wheat country in Montana. I was able to learn all about global grain movements while specializing in grain origination, marketing and logistics with the last 4 of those years trading specialty commodities of barley’s, canola, Austrian winter peas and pulse seed. I love the outdoors and my amazing wife and I try our best to experience and enjoy it as frequent as possible, when we’re not helping on the farm or doing another home improvement project. Tiffany Startin: Also a Whitman County native, Tiffany was raised on a farm near Endicott, WA. She knows hard work and is not afraid of it -- proven repeatedly as she helped her dad with his cement business and wheat farm as a child and currently supports her husband's farming hobby. Tiffany has a background in finance (Farm Credit), USDA programs (Whitman Co. FSA), and breezed through agent licensing -- which shouldn't be surprising since she received an award for being extra smart... She has a heart-of-gold, she's a quick study and self-starter, very personable, trusted and respected by colleagues and clients alike. Tiffany holds a degree from Washington State University in Business Administration with an emphasis on Management & Operations -- yes, she is definitely a smartie... ©2021 The McGregor Company; site design ©2021 Klündt | Hosmer.
