Rachel exhibited the 1990 National Champion Female with her bred-and-owned cow, “Amber.” During this time, it was unheard of for a youngster to show in the open shows with “the men.” Rachel had a special touch with Amber. They were a team and she boldly competed in the open shows – as a young girl. Even today, many of the older international breeders say to her “Rachel, I remember when you were a tiny girl showing out there with all the old men…” Courage and risk taking has always been part of who Rachel is.
