About Us
Trainer, Ari Mishko
Ari's love for horses began as a young girl, always eager to surround herself with horses at every opportunity. She started showing as a youth in the AQHA Versatility Ranch Horse Classes, where she earned multiple awards, including all-around and reserve championships, along with a Top 10 AQHA Year-End High Point. She then focused the majority of her youth career on competing in Reining, participating in some of the largest NRHA shows, including the NRHA Derby, NRHA North American Affiliate Finals, NRBC, The Run For A Million (Rookie Championships), National Western Stock Show Ram Invitational Freestyle in 2023 and 2024, NRHA Derby Invitational Freestyle in 2022 and 2023, and many more.
After her youth career, Ari transitioned to working as an assistant under her mentor, NRHA Professional and Judge Shane Brown. She later pursued further professional development and expanded her knowledge as a trainer, learning under NRHA Professional and Judge Drake Johnson.
