▪️It was all worth the B.S▪️ I graduated today with my Bachelors of Science in Animal Science, Preveterinary Medicine and Research from the Rutgers School of Environmental and Biological Sciences. It doesn’t feel like reality and probably won’t until I don’t have to go back come September. Thank you, of course, to my amazing parents; nothing would have been possible with your support, perspective, and love. And thank you to the rest of my family for coming out either yesterday or today to share the event with me. Now, onto bigger, better, and scarier things, like vet school, await me. 🐴🐶🐱🐹🐰🐮🐷 🔻”If it excites you and scares you at the same time, it probably means you should do it.”🔺 (at Rutgers University—New Brunswick) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bxs092TFpBijLDQoDl-NTwMiCnHcoMgRlDMko80/?igshid=11vja1bkk9jk2

Another birthday gift from my parents❤️ (at Rochelle Park, New Jersey)

Surprise, surprise, another horse-related picture! But this time it’s not related to riding: Ag Field Day was yesterday, where I acted as coordinator for the horse section of Animal Handling and Fitting. I got to watch students, who had worked so hard for the past six weeks with their horses, go into the show ring and just kill it! I’m proud of each and every one of them and it feels bittersweet that the class is over! I’ve made close friends with both the students and supervisors I’ve worked with the past semester and can’t wait to do it again next year! 🐴 #rutgersday #agfield #horsingaround • Also PSA for any student/supervisors in this class: the pictures are up and ready for the taking!😃

Temporarily forgetting about all my stress and having some fun riding this little nugget☺️❤️🐴 (ignore my less than stellar canter transition)

I’m thrilled to say that after a year full of IHSA shows that I will be competing next weekend at Zones, having been Regional Champion for Z3R4! Trinity was a perfect draw as always, but I never could have done as well as I did without my amazing coach, captain, and teammates, as well as my parents who come to every show they can to support me! I’m so glad they were able to see this achievement! I love RUET and I cannot wait until next weekend! #ruet #rideihsa #ruetgersequestrian #zonesbound (at Palermo Show Stable)

I got to ride Glory for the second time this past show weekend and she gave a blue ribbon! 💙🐴 #ruet

“You get what you work for, not what you wish for” ~•~ Western regionals are this weekend, and yesterday’s lesson on Joan Rivers has prepared as much as I can be. Now I just have to give my all on Saturday. But even if I don’t qualify for Semi-finals, the progression in my riding in the past semester and a half is more than enough for me🐴 #RUET #rideihsa

Might need to get a permanent one of these, I don’t want it to fade🐾🖤

April was an amazing draw last weekend as I rode in Intermediate for the last time; she gave me a second place and helped me class up into Novice and qualify for Regionals! 🐴❤️ #ruet

Trying to ignore the fact school starts in two days and the stress about the concept of being stressed, here’s a picture of Charleston, the perfect boy I rode today😍🐴 (at Bergen Equestrian Center)

I chose to spend my day after Christmas with this lovely beast😁🐴❤️ (at Bergen Equestrian Center)

“We lose ourselves in the things we love. We find ourselves there too.” Last show for a couple of months; normally I would be upset, but I need the reprieve. I love riding and nothing will ever make me stop, but even too much of something good can become toxic. Sometimes you have to take a step back, breathe, regroup, and remember why you continue.....

Lady was perfect today in my pattern class, helping earn my second 1st place of the year! 🐴 #RUET
