About Me.

Hello! My name is Elizabeth Smith. Thank you for being here.

I am the Founder and Executive Director of Silterra Consulting Group, where I provide contract-based services to food and agriculture businesses. 

Before founding Silterra, I served as Associate Director of Market Research at the National Cattlemen’s Beef Association, where I led key initiatives supporting the beef industry’s market research and consumer insights efforts. My previous experience also includes roles in international marketing and event coordination at the Michigan Department of Agriculture & Rural Development, federal public policy and strategic communications with the U.S. House of Representatives, and executive assistance with Western Skies Strategies. 

I bring a cross-sector perspective and a practical, results-oriented approach to every client relationship, rooted in a deep understanding of the ag industry and a commitment to supporting those who feed the world. Whether you need targeted research, project leadership, or strategic operational support, Silterra is here to be a trusted extension of your team.
