Interests

I've always had a deep love for animals, especially horses and dogs, and that passion has grown into a strong interest in riding, particularly dressage I have been riding since I was twelve, and am now on the LSU Equestrian Team! I enjoy the precision, patience, and communication that dressage requires It’s a challenge that’s both physical and mental, which makes it really rewarding When I’m not at the barn, I love reading books or focusing on my school work Academics are important to me, and I enjoy staying organized and engaged in my classes, so that soon I can apply to Vet School my goal is to become an Equine Veterinarian Whether I’m studying, riding, or spending time with my dog, I’m happiest when I’m learning and building connections, both with people and animals
