The 27-year-old dressage rider began her competitive career with success as a pony rider throughout her junior and young rider years. After studying journalism in Washington, D.C. at the American University, Deligdish decided to focus solely on her dressage training. A United States Dressage Federation (USDF) bronze, silver and gold medalist, Deligdish trains with Australian international Grand Prix competitor, Nicholas Fyffe of Marcus Fyffe Dressage. Based year-round in Wellington, Florida, Deligdish trains with positive enthusiasm as she takes the next step into international competition representing Israel.
