Biography
Julie started riding horses at her aunt’s farm when she was 7 years old, where she was trained in the hunter/jumper discipline. She rode on and off throughout her youth and adulthood. 10 years ago, after a bad fall and injury, Julie switched disciplines, learned natural horsemanship, regained lost confidence and started working towards her first endurance ride. Her first-ever long-distance ride was 5 years ago with her Mare, Mariah. They have been doing as many competitions as possible ever since!
