Spotlight on Graduating Seniors

It’s that time of year when we celebrate the accomplishments of our UPM family and their children as they celebrate the milestones in their lives.  One such person is Natalie Miranda, daughter of Ray Miranda, Nickel and Specialty Product Manager. 

Natalie recently graduated from McAuley High School and is planning to attend the University of Cincinnati in the fall.  Her studies will focus on Biological Sciences, the Biology of Animals,  as she prepares to follow her passion towards becoming an  Equine Surgeon. 

Horse Lover at Heart

Natalie was captivated by horses when she was just 10 years old.  She adores her horse, Dakota, and cannot envision her future without him.  Natalie has quite a lot of experience riding, training , and even barrel racing - Way to be part of the action!                 

She spends a great deal of her time at Galerie Farm in West Chester, Ohio; volunteering, teaching children proper grooming for their horses, and preparing them for shows.  When she isn’t spending time with Dakota, Natalie enjoys studying Spanish, practicing photography and volunteering for the YMCA children’s programs.  Here’s to an exciting future - We wish Natalie the best of luck in all she pursues!
