I grew up on my family’s century dairy farm. However, I only knew it after it become a retired dairy, but my family quickly replaced the cows with horses, beef cattle, chickens, cats, and two dogs.

The equine and equestrian industry is truly a blessing to have grown up in and is one of my favorite parts of the agriculture industry.

Ever since I was a child I knew that I wanted to work with animals. Horses, in particular, have always fascinated me. After much begging, pleading, years of convincing, and always working hard to save up money, I convinced my parents to allow me to buy a horse. To me, Indie was the most beautiful quarter horse I could have ever dreamed of getting. Since our purchase of Indie, we have acquired another horse, Sherman, and a pony, Tucker. Although the horses have always been hard work, they were worth every sweaty hot summer evening of mucking out the stalls and frigid winter mornings of carrying water to the trough in order to avoid freezing our hoses. After all, I used to dream of being a veterinarian and helping all kinds of animals in some way.
