When did you start an interest in rodeo? When I learned how to ride at the age of 2.
What other sports other than rodeo do you enjoy? Basketball, I pretty much breathe it.  I also enjoy hockey and football.

What is the funniest thing that you have seen or experienced at a rodeo? One summer at a NANCA rodeo I swear every barrel racer fell off their horse.  I know it’s not something to laugh about but it was hilarious.  No one got hurt except maybe their pride.


What advice would you give to Indian youth about rodeo or anything in general? Rodeo is great!  No matter what your education is the most important thing in order to achieve success you always need something to fall back on.  No matter what always have fun when you rodeo and treat your horse good because they deserve it.


What advice would you give to Indian youth who wanted to participate in
rodeo but didn't have the resources or support to get involved? 
There is lots of great people willing to lend a hand so don’t be afraid to ask for it.  Watch and Learn!


Are there any songs that inspire or pump you up before you ride or rope? Oh yeah, Striptease by Hawksley Workman, ACDC, Bob Marley, and Kurt Hammond playing the guitar, because I play like him.


What would you like to see more of at Indian Rodeos?  More Fan support because it gives the contestants confidents.  I would also like to see more money, and more contestants.


What are/is your favorite western movie(s)?  John Wayne, Young Guns, and I know this isn’t a western but it’s my all time favourite – Pinnochio!


What is your favorite music?   Reggae, Country, Rock, and Rap.

 

What was your most memorable ride or run? I would have to say all of them because it feels good to be a team with my horse.


Who is your all time hero? My ma and pa and my family because they have always been my #1Fans and biggest supporters.  Also, Monica Wilson, because she taught me a lot and she has always been there if I needed advice, help with my skills, or helping me find a new horse.


What Indian Cowboy or Cowgirl has influenced you to rodeo? All barrel racers!  I grew up watching and competing against, because they all influenced me to work harder and not to give up.


Would you like to thank sponsors and or anyone for your success in rodeo? My Mama and Pops, also known as my personal bank machines. LOL. Without them I wouldn’t have made it to all those rodeos and go those brand new boots and wranglers. Thanks Mom and Dad, I love you.
