Summary

I have been working alongside my father in the cattle business for my whole life. I have always loved working with horses and have also been around horses for a good portion of my life though we’ve never owned any. Along with cattle I also show market sheep in 4-H. I have been working on breaking my first colt and I would greatly enjoy learning and helping with more horses. I work morning and night on my show cattle and show sheep which includes washing, blow drying, feeding, watering, applying leg wraps and blankets for my show sheep.
