Do you have any superstitions before you load up?
When we were little, and far less experienced, our superstition was that if a board wasn't thrown during the process of loading pigs onto the trailer, then it wasn't going to be a good weekend.
What has been your favorite thing about showing pigs?
Discovering myself and where my true passions lie has been my most favorite thing about showing pigs. Discovering people who share in those same passions and building relationships with them has also been my favorite.
What was your favorite trait/quality of your champion?
My favorite thing about my champion was his laid back attitude.
If you could go back in time, when would it be and why?
If I could go back in time, I would go back to this last summer. Working on the farm all day and being in the barn all night will forever be a time etched in my memory.
What is the biggest struggle you have faced showing?
The biggest struggle I have faced in showing is definitely within my lack of confidence.
