Holly Hollis

Holly was born and raised in the heart of the Texas Hill Country, where her family has been ranching for generations. A proud sixth-generation Texan, she comes from a long line of ranchers—her family’s Mason County ranch was honored as a sesquicentennial working cattle ranch in 1986 and remains in operation today. She also descends from one of the founding families of Boerne, Texas, where ranching, tradition, and heritage are a way of life.

Growing up on her family’s ranches in Kendall, Mason, and McCulloch Counties, Holly developed a lifelong respect for the land, livestock, and the values tied to rural living. After high school, she worked as a veterinary technician, gaining hands-on experience in animal care, client service, and surgical assistance.

Holly’s creative streak runs just as deep as her ranching heritage. From a young age, she found joy in the sewing room with her grandma—sewing, crafting, painting, and mastering everything from leatherwork to digital embroidery design. In 2016, she followed her passion and earned a BBA with honors from UTSA, focusing on marketing and digital design.

Since joining Texas Ranches For Sale in 2021, Holly has played a key role in elevating the brokerage’s brand through design, strategy, and storytelling. She brings a unique blend of creative talent and ranching authenticity to every campaign she leads.

Outside of work, Holly enjoys spending time outdoors with her son, whether it's fishing, hiking, mountain biking, or horseback riding. She also shares her days with two rescue dogs and a horse, continuing her lifelong connection to animals and the land.
