Family Operated

We are a family operated business with our team and family's daily help around the farm! From foal handling to throwing hay bales! We love what we do 

Local and Proud of it!

With a personal goal to support and encourage island riders to pursue their riding goals and dreams!  We accept a limited number of students so I can focus fully on each rider's individual needs and goals.  We provide show prep, education, fitness tips and opportunities!

I began my riding career in the jumping arena and found my love for Dressage as I began to see how the flat work improved my horse's way of going.  I like to incorporate other aspects of training into my programs such as pole work, cavalettis, in-hand, and trails.  


I have focused primarily on the lower levels and have achieved good results with many championships and top placing over my career.  I pride myself in my student's success and look forward to helping you reach your goals!

Client Focused

I truly enjoy helping clients improve and grow their relationship with their horse(s)!  I focus on abilities and strengths of each horse rider combination and strive to improve areas of weakness!  Lets get focused on you!

Goal Centered

Your goal is my goal!  I aim is to assist you with determining, developing and reaching your goals!  Drop us a line and lets make a plan for you and your horse!
