From an early age when she began riding through the park district, her passion for horses has only grown. She still enjoys time with her eventing horse, Spider, who she has had for nearly 20 years. Dr. Golden’s other interests are making up recipes, hiking, and spending time with her husband Ryan, family, and friends.
