A Lifetime of
Experience

I've been falling off of ponies since I was 5. I've been training horses since I was 16. I have trained hundreds and hundreds of horses. I have seen it all and know how to help whatever problem your horse may have.

Your Perfect Horse is Waiting for You!

Find the right partner to accomplish your dreams!

With my training protocol, I can help you find the horse that will be a perfect match or I can help make the horse you already love into the right partner!

After working with hundreds of horses, I can help you identify what's important, help you articulate your goals, and make sure you have someone appropriate for your interests, your personality, and your lifestyle.  

Every horse is a unique personality, and so is every human.  Through my experience, I have become the ultimate Match.com for riders!

My Training Protocol

I'm here to solve your equine problems!

Groundwork & Trust

Build the foundation for a happy & bonded partner.

I've participated in over 10 Mustang Makeovers.  Taking a wild, untouched horse and building the trust required to ride them is an amazing process.  Groundwork is key to building the relationship you want with any horse.

Careful Exposure

Help the Horse Grow with Confidence

Kicking and force are rarely long-term solutions for horses lacking confidence.  I am always working to build the horse's confidence which means allowing them time to explore and feel safe in any circumstance.  Each horse is given exposure to many different situations and helped to understand how not to be nervous in the face of new stimuli.
