Hello, I am Ariana Perkins. I am a senior at Diamond Hill-Jarvis High School. In high school I am active in my FFA Chapter, drill team, and Dance company. I will graduate this year as my school's valedictorian. After high school, I plan to attend college for Animal Science and Dance. My goal is to become a rancher raising beef cattle and wool sheep. I also hope to raise Dorper show sheep so I can stay involved in the livestock showing community by raising my favorite breed of sheep.

I am grateful for having placed and made auction with my lamb who's name is Shawty Bae. He has been my best tempered animal in my four years of showing. Aside from lambs, I have also participated in showing goats, swine, and fancy poultry. The money I gain from his auction will be used towards my college education.

I thank my family who have supported me throughout my livestock showing journey. I also am thankful for my ag teachers for giving me the opportunity to grow as a person through raising livestock.
