Goals and interests

Career goal

I plan on using the degrees that I have obtained and plan on obtaining to efficiently run my own tack business as well as be able to breed, train, and sell well bred, good minded horses that leave my facility in the best health possible.

Outside the classroom

I love to rodeo and be outdoors. I am not the kind of person who sits well in front of a computer all day. I also love to play basketball, hockey, kickball, as well as coach track.
