What’s always in your ring bag:
All different sours, gloves, hairnets, helmet, and boot polish

Describe your pre-show ritual in 3 steps:
First I always make sure I have a full stomach because I always ride better when I’m not hungry, then I will clean my boots and learn my courses and last I will put my jacket on, hair up, and be ready to hop on.

Favorite post-ride treat for you and your horse:
I will always give my horses a peppermint after I ride or any other horse treat and I will go eat a snack… most likely goldfish!

Who is your favorite riding inspiration - past or present:
My dad and my brother because they were and are great Grand Prix riders and also great in the equitation ring.

When did you first fall in love with riding:
My parents put me on a pony when I was 2. From then I just loved that pony and wanted to keep doing it.

A moment in the ring you will never forget:
A moment in the ring that I will never forget is when they announced that Pepsi and I won the pony medal finals. It was such a special moment for me and I was so happy.

Secret Talent: 
I love to sing and have sang many national anthems at many different horse shows across the nation

Coffee order or go-to snack:
Chicken tenders

“I love Essex Classics because of how the collars stand up themselves, they are easy to care for, and I think they are the best show shirts for the equitation ring”
