About Olivia:
An equestrian from Three Forks, Montana. Olivia’s family has owned horses her entire life and she has been riding from a young age. She competes in Pole Bending and Barrel Racing with my horses Gunner and Skoal. She's been rodeoing for the last 10 years, and throughout that time there have been so many highs and lows that have taught her invaluable lessons. From winning her first buckle to heartbreaking injuries, victories and defeats, there has been a definite change in the way Olivia approaches her mental state for competition.
