I would like to thank my first trainer, Bonnie Smith for getting me started. You taught me that hard work and sticking with it would get me places along with having a lot of fun. And, I would like to thank Shachine Belle for teaching me finesse. You have taught me all of those extra special things to become a better rider and person. I couldn’t have gotten this far without either of you. I would like to thank my family for all those endless drives to the barn and horse shows. Thank you for being supportive. It has been a wonderful journey!
