Why Jump for a Just World?
Alexandra feels that JustWorld International provides her with the opportunity to help others through competition. She is looking forward to contributing her time during the various JustWorld fundraising events held at horse shows.
Alexandra is in her senior year at Miss Porter’s School. She enjoys spending time at the barn with her horses, reading, spending time with family and friends, as well as traveling. She is a member of the Washington International Junior Committee.
My favorite hobbies, other than riding my horses, are volleyball and photography. My volunteer involvement consists of HOPE and Riot. HOPE stands for Helping Out People Everywhere. I was reserve circuit champion aboard my horse Blast in the high children’s jumpers at the 2009 Winter Equestrian Festival and had multiple wins in the children’s jumpers. I am home schooled and attend Huntington Learning Center. I am currently in 8th grade.
