Hailey Frederiksen was born and raised in Colorado where she spent her time participating in many different hobbies such as dance, barrel racing and even motor cross. Although she held her first rodeo title at the age of 9, Miss Rodeo America wouldn’t find her true passion until later in life.
Frederiksen followed in her mother and father’s footsteps as she participates in both barrel racing and roping. Frederiksen began riding horses at a very young age and continues to do so, however, her parents have always shown support with all of her many interests.
“They taught me the responsibly, the hard work that goes behind doing anything that you want in life whether you succeed or fail,” Frederiksen said.
Frederiksen recalls the exact moment she found her calling as a rodeo queen and has continued to follow her dreams as she was crowned Miss Rodeo Colorado in both 2020 and 2021 and finally Miss Rodeo America in 2022.
