After her years as a titleholder, she got involved with cow horses and, after graduating from Oregon State University with a Wildlife Biology degree, she found her passion of education and content creation with her boyfriend, Dusty. Together they created HorsePro.TV where Shaina took Dusty’s idea and learned all the technology needed to make it a reality. She does all of the content strategy, video creation, and membership outreach and management for their online database of fundamental equine training programs.

Jump in as Ashley talks about being from a small rural town in North Dakota, being diagnosed with cancer, undergoing chemo and then competing for the title of Miss Rodeo America proudly wearing her wig.
