MEMBER SPOTLIGHT

Natoshia Kelly

My name is Natoshia Kelly and I grew in Sumner , WA where I showed at the 4-H, Open and Breed levels.  As a youth I showed on the Appaloosa Circuit, was a multiple Top Ten placer at the Appaloosa Nationals and earned over 500 points on two horses.  I then went away to College at Washington State University and ended up transferring to the University of Findlay after my grandma passed away.  I graduated five years ago from Findlay, got married, and now resided in Carey, OH with my Husband, Ross our two horses, two dogs, and three cats.  I have been showing on the Quarter Horse Circuit the last six years and have earned multiple all-around awards and placed Top Ten at the Congress a couple of times.  I ride with Art and Julie O’Brien and have shown in a wide range of events which include Showmanship, the Flat classes, and the Fence classes.   I am currently showing a four year old that my family bred.  His name is “Luking For The Money” or Titan and I have had him since he was a yearling.  This year I am hoping to qualify for the World Show in Showmanship and Equitation.  Good Luck to everyone at the Shows and if you see a bay horse with his tongue sticking out that is Titan so come over and say “Hi”.   I am looking forward to meeting many new people.
