Favorite Memory from My Time in the Equestrian Program 

My favorite memories include all the fun times we had in our riding classes. It was always such a fun time, and I have learned many new things. Being able to be a part of the Western riding team was also a great memory of mine. I have gained more experience in horsemanship, and it was always a great time!

Next Up 

After my internship, I plan to become licensed in massage therapy. I also plan to continue working and become more educated in the equine industry. Farther down the road I want to open my own training and lesson barn.
