Have you ever felt like you didn’t fit in? Yearned for a sense of belonging? Vero Sandler has, and she’s paved the way for her dreams.

Vero’s many things: a hard worker, a pioneer of the sport, a brilliant rider. But even these words fall short of encapsulating the presence and sheer force of will that she exudes.

Becoming a role model for the next generation is no small task. We’re thankful that Vero’s continuing to put in the work to inspire more future riders to be like her.
