Isabella Ribeiro

Isabella is a 17-year-old from Gilroy, California, proudly representing Miss Gilroy Rodeo 2026. A passionate equestrian, Isabella has been riding horses since the age of eight, gaining nine years of experience and building a deep love for the Western way of life.

Isabella is fortunate to share her life with three horses, each with a special place in her heart. They are more than just horses—they are her partners in adventure. Whether she’s barrel racing or simply spending time with her horses, Isabella loves anything that allows her to be in the saddle. Always ready for a new adventure, she embraces every opportunity to learn, grow, and challenge herself.

Isabella is excited to bring her Gilroy roots and passion for the Western lifestyle to the rodeo world, making her experience as Miss Gilroy Rodeo 2026 even more meaningful. Beyond riding, she is also an apprentice farrier and plans to attend school to become a certified farrier, continuing to expand her knowledge and dedication to the equine industry.

Through her love of horses, commitment to learning, and adventurous spirit, Isabella looks forward to representing Gilroy with pride and sharing her passion for the rodeo community.
