Share a little about yourself.

I am originally from just outside of Lexington, Kentucky, and began riding horses when I was 5 years old. In 2015, I graduated from Morehead State University with a Bachelor of Science in Equine Science. I am married, have three horses, and a sassy Australian Shepherd. My horses and I enjoy trail riding, trail obstacle competitions, and performing with an equestrian drill team. I also serve on the Board of Directors for the Mountain Pleasure Horse Association.
