What’s your Goat name? and what made him/her so special?
She did not have a name. My doe had a great personality and was naturally easy to show.
Throughout your show career what’s been your favorite Goat?
I have had many goats, but my favorite has to be Ted. He was the 2021 OYE Grand Champion market goat. My family also raised him which made it extra special.
What do you tell yourself right before you go into the ring?
Honestly, I am constantly worrying and hoping my goats will walk in the show ring.
What’s your dream college to attend?
I would love to attend Oklahoma State University.
What’s your favorite thing to do in the barn?
I love to sweep!
What’s your favorite show? and why?
I have experienced several majors, but OYE is still my favorite. The atmosphere and the people make the show what it is.
How do you stay focused on reaching your goal?
I continuously focus on the little things that make the big things easier.
Who has been your biggest influence?
My parents have been my biggest influences and supporters. My dad is always helping me at the barn and making sure the stock is looking the best it can. My mom is the one who always makes sure everything thing is pressed, packed and ready to go.
