Cate's love for horses began at age six when she started riding at a hunter/jumper barn in Cincinnati. Her passion for animals blossomed as she grew, leading her to volunteer at a therapeutic riding center in Cincinnati at 16. This experience deepened her appreciation for the profound connection between horses and humans, inspiring her to pursue a career in the field. After earning her PATH certification, Cate moved to Delaware to attend college, where she is now studying Pre-Professional Zoology and Psychology, with plans to attend Occupational Therapy school after graduation.

Beyond her love of riding, Cate is deeply committed to helping animals and dreams of one day running her own rescue. In her free time, she enjoys reading, exploring the outdoors, riding, and spending time with animals and friends.
