Saundra (Saunie) and her husband, Mark married and raised their two daughters in Republic County where they also began their farm and ranch operation to include both sons-in-law and daughters. While growing this business Saundra has always worked off the farm in business roles where many good people provided her room to learn and grow.

In 2014, after eight years as the financial controller at Nesika Energy, Saundra chose to take a leap of faith to start her own bookkeeping business (Kaneali Ag, LLC) providing bookkeeping, financial reporting, payroll services for small businesses as well as additional professional services upon request.

Over the past 30 plus years Saundra has gained experience in general bookkeeping, accounts receivable, accounts payable, payroll, financial reporting, cash management, grain accounting and marketing, cattle accounting in both a feedlot setting and on farm including inventory management of livestock and risk management. She has also spent time in the role of managing employees and all aspects that surround such. Though Saunie has a strong background in agriculture, her clients include, but are not limited to retail, manufacturing, graphic design, food service, feedyards, and production agriculture. Some of her greatest joy is found in helping a customer improve themselves with a better understanding of processes, financial management and organization resulting in success. It is very rewarding to help a new business owner take their dream and turn it into a reality.

It is with great pride that Saundra has been able to bring her daughter Neely in as a partner in Kaneali Ag, LLC and most recently to add an employee to help serve their growing customer base.

The term “Legacy” holds and importance to Saunie for both her family and her community.
