Jennifer Gates – the daughter of billionaire Bill Gates and a horsewoman – is now, like the rest of us, in quarantine at home. In an interview with ClipMyHorse, she talked about her love of horses, how she balances equestrianism with her studies, and highlights of her sporting career.

“This year has been like a roller coaster for me. Despite the corona crisis, I managed to complete my first year of medical school. It was not easy, and I am very happy that I did it. In addition, I think we should be glad that we can continue to work horses daily during this difficult period, I must admit that little has changed for me: I work with my horses, I am focused on my studies, the only difference is that there are no tournaments, but that doesn’t bother me too much.”

“The best moment of my career? The very fact that I can play at the highest level tournaments. To be honest, I never thought that I would succeed. Of course, I dreamed about it as a child, but I thought it was just a dream. As a child, I tried myself in different sports. My mother is also involved with horses, but she rides just for fun. With her help, I fell in love with this sport and horses, you know the rest.”
