I’m in my 9th year of 4-H and my projects are Horse/Pony, Veterinary Science and Photography. I work for a catering business and clean stalls at a few barns.

• Interests:
  • Most of my free time is spent working with my two project horses and gaining more knowledge about all things equine. I also enjoy helping teach younger riders at the barn. Recently I’ve been passionate about nutrition and overall wellness, which leads to plenty of time experimenting in the kitchen and working out. Any time left I spend reading and helping with our new puppy.

  • Above all I enjoy riding horses that test my skills and teach me new ones. The World Cup team is true testament to a rider’s horsemanship and ability to adapt to change, something I continue to work to improve. Being chosen is an honor and a testament to my passion for the sport and my love of horses.
