ulie (né Bundy) Brooks grew up and still lives in rural Missouri. She's had horses since she was about 5 years old....a typical midwest horse-crazy girl. Julie collected models from when shewas very young, but actually started customizing in 1997, basically learning by trial and error. A few years later she dove into making native arabian costumes. A local friend in the hobby got her started on live shows around 2001. Julie took a year off from late 2005-2006, and then began customizing again. She gives God all the credit for any smidgen of talent He's given her and for everything He's brought her through.
