a balanced, consistent, “no
drama” horse! Her talent never
ceases to amaze me, with a work
ethic that’s second to none.

I have so much love and passion
for the Miniature horse. I’m
competitive by nature, and while
winning titles is great, at the end
of the day, it’s the connection I
have with my horses that bring
the most satisfaction. None of
my success would be possible
without my mom’s willingness
to be “barn manager” when I
am at college, and I can’t thank
her enough as I always know the
horses are getting huge amounts
of TLC. Kudos to my dad as
well for supporting this crazy
hobby that I never seemed to
grow out of! Also, I’m grateful
to Kim Sweatt for her help and
support all year long; without
“Coach K” things would not be
the same.
Reminiscing about all my years
competing in AMHA, I have
spectacular memories. I’ve
made wonderful friends and
participated in many fun/wild shenanigans at different shows.
It’s also been a great learning experience as I continue to
discover how to present my horses to the best of our combined
abilities. I want to encourage and inspire more people to set
their sights on competing for the title of Super Amateur, at
both the Regional Championships and World Show.
My heartfelt thanks to the AMHA for offering this awesome
award to amateur exhibitors, and to Lonnie Perdue LIT& W4
Ranch for their sponsorship of this year’s Super Ammy.
There are so many wonderful people in this industry; have a
great holiday season, everyone and I look forward to seeing
my horse show family again in 2019!
