My name is Tami Bova-Luke. We’re in Covington, Indiana and I am a horse trainer.

When I was seven, my dad took me to a rodeo in Denver, Colorado, called the Denver Stock Show. And I watched all the rodeo events. And then they came in and here comes the women and the women barrel racing. And I said to my dad, “When I grow up, that's what I want to do. I want to be a professional barrel racer and train horses.” And that's what I became.

I'm a horrible businesswoman in this because I have too much heart. When they come to us, they never leave. The horses that I generally have, I have till they say goodbye to us. Every once in a while, I may sell one but it's very rare.

My future dream would be for my girls to keep being successful. Keep loving what they're doing in this horse industry and then eventually make it to the national finals rodeo if they so choose. And who knows, maybe be a world champion one day. But if you talk to any barrel racer, that's pretty much every barrel racer’s dream.

I would like to be remembered as a nice person, as somebody that's helpful to others. I'm always trying to better myself. That can be tricky sometimes. It's always easier to help others than to help yourself.
