BIO
My horses are my whole world and I would do anything to keep them happy and healthy. My barrel horse’s name is Captain and he is absolutely perfect for me. He is 15 years old and a consistent 2D/1D barrel and pole horse. I got 3rd in open 2D at San Antonio Rodeo and did well in the Youth poles and barrels as well. I am competing in HHBRA and other small rodeos now and am starting Junior Hight Rodeo, Region 6 this year. My second horse is named Skippy and he is 9 years old. When we rescued him, he had many, many issues. I’ve had him for 4 years and he has come so, so far. He was the first horse I ever trained on my own. Despite it being my 11th year riding. These horse are no doubt my best friends and soul mates! My huge role model is Martha Josey and Sherry Cervi, they’re so big on horsemanship and to me that is way more important than the running itself. I’ve also met both and love their enthusiastic toward horsemanship, teamwork, bonding, etc.
