About Me

About Me

As a junior from Denver, Colorado, I am eager to pursue my passion for equestrian sports at the collegiate level. While I don’t have a lot of show ring experience due to financial and horse constraints, I have spent a lot of time in the saddle on a wide range of horses. My current horse, Bombay, is very green and new to the horse show environment and recently competed in his first A-rated horse show. Our plan is to move up to the 3'0" by the end of the show year and hopefully gain more experience in the hunters and equitation. This summer I attended the ExEL College Combine and was the recipient of the Sportsmanship Award. 

 

Academically, I am very strong and maintain a weighted GPA of 4.72. I have already completed two AP classes and plan to take four AP classes by the end of my junior year. In college, I would love to study pre-med or biology and attend Medical School post-grad going on to become a pediatric oncologist.

 

Riding on a collegiate equestrian team would allow me to continue my passion while achieving a higher education. I look forward to applying my hard work and cheering on my teammates as we strive towards our goals.
