Hi, I'm Kristen Sackett,

I am currently a senior Exercise Science major with a concentration in Sports Psychology from Williamson, NY. I began riding when I was 4 years old, so I don't think there was a time in my life where there weren't horses around. I started out riding my grandma's Morgan horses doing hunt seat and saddle seat. When I was 11, I switched over to Dressage, riding my aunt's horse Rainbow. Rainbow and I won high score awards, was a junior young rider champion at a show, won an AMHA medal and were reserve champions at many of the shows we did together. Currently, my aunt's four year old mare Jane has become my new project so I hope that we will someday be as successful together as Rainbow and I were. Having never jumped or done equitation before coming to IC, it's been an amazing experience riding for the team!
