Life is like a jump split into four stages; approach, take-off, landing and get away.” This is Kara’s philosophy and is what propels her over life’s large hurdles. Her coach, Meagan, describes Kara as “dedicated, driven and an empathetic rider with a commitment to hard work, her horse’s well-being and most importantly, the needs of her family. In 2024 Kara’s focus and determination will be set on soaring over that next jump on her pathway to the NAYC as a full team member.
