Owner at West Wind Stables (Statesville, NC) We had some really great horses to work with and train when I was attending William Woods. The horses the equestrian community donated were some of the fanciest horses I had ridden at that point in my life. My graduating class was also a great group of riders that I was […]
Assistant Trainer at Baskin Farm (Wildwood, Missouri) Experiences at William Woods William Woods was still an all women’s university when I was there.

I came here as an exchange student, at Fulton High School, so I got to see the William Woods campus and learn […]
Public Relations and Sponsorship Manager at Big Rafter Entertainment If I had to pick just one favorite memory of William Woods University, I assure you that I could not do it!
