Jaclynn Knutson

People's Choice Award

1.What is the funniest thing you remember as a child?
“Unwritten” by Natasha Bedingfield describes a young girl beginning to write her own song. “Unwritten” represents me and all of the junior high ladies that I meet through my platform, FearlesslyGirl. Through my workshops, I am guiding my participants’ hands in a position direction as they write their stories. I am still writing my own story of my journey to success – the rest is still unwritten.

2.What is the one piece of clothing you wish you owned?
When I am working and traveling the country, Boot Barn always has my back for any wardrobe needs. It is a national chain, so if I forget something at home, Boot Barn is my trusty sidekick that has everything I need.

3.What season of the year is your favorite and why?
I love traveling! Every Christmas, my parents, sisters, and I travel across the state to Rapid City in the Black Hills of South Dakota to visit my mom’s family. I enjoy spending time with family members that I don’t get to see often and taking in the adventures and sites of the Black Hills.

4.What is your favorite movie?
Ever since I was three years old, I have showed sheep. For years, I have appreciated this art! I enjoy spending family time during the summer at sheep shows. My sister – Alison – and I have a nonverbal language that gives us an edge over the competition. Traveling to over twenty-five states, receiving multiple scholarships, and gaining endless connections are all thanks to my dedication to showing sheep.
