With her A, she was able to move straight into the horse industry as the Director of Riding at the University of Massachusetts Equine Studies Program at the age of 23. Although she changed careers, she found that what she learned in Pony Club—organization, teamwork, confidence, and how to tie a stock tie—all came in handy in her professional life as an endangered species biologist. When she found that she could give back to Pony Club by becoming a National Examiner, she jumped at the opportunity. She finds it very rewarding to help an organization she is passionate about, and she finds that she is energized in her own riding and horsemanship by staying connected to Pony Club. Now, Heather is a participating member of the Gold Country Pony Club in the Sierra Pacific Region, and also a Life member.
