Summary
I'm also an equestrian outside of school. Personally im a love helping people grow in this sport and as well as bringing them into this sport. Also coaching people in this sport and watching them excel and then the happiness and joy when all their challenging work has paid off, their reactions are priceless. Good things always happen to the ones who wait. Im Currently the national director for APHA American Pinto Horse Association. I manage Florida, Alabama, and Georgia. I help promote APHA for the youth and Adults! Im also a Game Changer, for APHA. This is where I discuss the rules in APHA and how it can be improved. Over 1 million horses are in this program as well! I also am a loving and caring person so if someone needs me, I will be there to help them through it.
