My horse experience growing up started when I lived in rural Virginia taking riding lessons at a small barn. I began riding English; Hunter’s to be more specific.

My father was in the military so I have lived in every part of the United States riding in each new place we moved to. I really started my showing career when we moved to Scottsdale, AZ. I was showing most weekends during the winter soaking up the beautiful desert sun. After graduating from high school, I moved to Fort Collins, Co to attend Colorado State University (GO RAMS!) where I graduated in 2002.

While in college I was not able to ride much, but horses were always on my mind. I focused my studies in Animal Nutrition while at CSU, after graduation I moved to Denison, IA where I started working for Progressive Nutrition as the Customer Service Specialist. After working for Progressive Nutrition for about two months I got the itch again and bought a yearling thoroughbred colt, affectingly named MONSTER (and yes, the name fits).

I am currently training him to become a hunter, as he is much too lazy for the Jumper ring as I had hoped. I love my job, and I am always looking to talk to somebody new so if there is ever anything that I can help you with please let me know.
