Meg Pellegrini began her riding journey at the age of five when her family lived in Tulsa, Okla. After a few years, she found her first pony, Ganymede, who eventually took her to many venues around the country and gave her a glimpse of upper-level Eventing. Meg believes Ganymede, also known as “Luna,” deserves the most credit for her competitive nature and desire to prove what she is capable of, even when the odds might be against her!

Eventually, Meg collected a small string of horses that helped her complete her goals of competing at some of the most prestigious events in the country, including the USEF Eventing Young Rider Championships. These horses assisted in Meg being named to USEF Development 25 Programs since 2018 and multiple USEF Futures Team Challenges.

In 2020, Meg moved to Malvern, Pa., to continue her journey in Eventing and work towards her goal of representing the U.S. on the international stage.
