About Me
I grew up with a next door neighbor who owned horses. She taught me how to ride Western and all the basics of horse care. Seven years ago I moved to a different state and I started taking English lessons on Chip, a bay Quarter horse. I now own a black Thoroughbred named Jazz It Up, (Jazz or Jim at the barn). He used to be a racehorse and his name was Job Security. He is awesome and I love him so much! :D I also work as a stablehand at C.J. Ranch, the stable I board Jazz at.
