Carrie Ostrowski

Hometown: Lexington, Ky. Birthday: 10/26/1986 Sport/Disciplines: Combined Driving

Ever since she was young, Carrie Ostrowski has dreamed of representing the U.S. on the world stage. When she began doing combined driving, she kept her big goal in mind as she moved up the levels of the sport.

Ostrowski found a star partner in Gellerduht ("Gus”). The pair began competing at the international level in 2019. The following year, they were named as alternates for the 2020 FEI Driving World Championship for Singles, which was eventually canceled due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In 2022, they were third in Live Oak International CAI3*-H1, the USEF Advanced Single Horse Combined Driving Reserve National Championship at the Katydid CDE, and the Kentucky Classic CDE CAI3*-H1.
