Supported by a family with a shared passion for horses
I am Anne Adams from Austin, Texas and am fortunate to share my passion with horses with my family. My mom is an avid equestrian who also rode in college and had me in the saddle before I could walk

Results
I thoroughly enjoy competing across all three rings, but my heart lies in the equitation and jumper arenas. In 2023, I had the privilege of inheriting my equitation horse from my mom, who previously competed with him in the adult hunter division. Together, we achieved milestones such as our first 3'6" classes and appearances in major equitation finals. Although relatively new to the jumper ring, I have rapidly progressed from the 1.10m classes to earning placements in Grand Prix events within six months, with aspirations to compete in Young Riders and U25 classes.
