Ep. 71 - All Around Cowgirl, Rancher, Actress, & Huntress, Carly Twisselman

Carly Twisselman is a native to the central coast of California, where she grew up on her family's generational cattle ranch. Always being a part of rodeo through the roping scene, she took a chance to independently rodeo-ing for the UCLA Bruins while getting a degree in mass communications and aspirations of being an actress!
