I was looking for a smaller school in a more rural setting with a serious riding team. Dartmouth just fit perfectly!
How long have you been riding and what got you interested in riding?
I've been riding since I was 5 years old, but I was obsessed with horses from the very beginning. One fateful pony ride became a life-long passion.
Have you won any academic or equestrian awards recently?
I qualified for IHSA Nationals last year in all 3 of my riding events - Open Flat, Open Fences, and the Cacchione Cup. I was also selected for All-Ivy Academic Honors last year.
What are your future plans, if any?
I'm applying to post-bacc programs for next year to finish my requirements for med school, then taking a year off to do something cool, followed by (hopefully) starting med school.
