Peyton Schumann grew up on a ranch in Novice, Texas where his father, Rodney Schumann, trained cutting horses and managed a cow-calf operation. Today, his family operates a successful stocker operation. A proud
graduate of Coleman High School and Texas Tech University, Peyton began his career in Austin, working for the Texas Senate as an Assistant Committee Clerk. He further honed his expertise as a Public/Digital Engagement Coordinator for Texans for Greg Abbott, Director of Government Relations for the Texas &
Southwestern Cattle Raisers Association, and most recently, as a Government Relations Specialist at the Texas General Land Office under Commissioner Dawn
Buckingham, M.D. He now serves as the Senior Director of Government Relations for TSCRA. Peyton and his wife, Jordan, welcomed a baby boy, Emmett Paul Schumann, on July 9, 2024. The Schumanns love escaping the city to spend time at the ranch, where they enjoy the outdoors with their two Dachshunds, Denver and Woodrow.
