My Riding Journey
My lifelong equestrian pursuits go beyond a love for horses and the thrill of competition, it’s about learning something new about myself, my horse, and striving for high performance with every ride. This is one of most, if not the most, challenging sports and I feel privileged to be a part of demonstrating that to the world.

My Equine Partners
As a developing rider, I’ve benefited from riding a number of different horses. I’ve learned valuable lessons from each of them making me a better rider. I love them all!
Terron
Terron is a Zangersheide foaled in 2013 and imported from Argentina. He stands around 16.3 hands. We bought him in the summer of 2025 and he has been an amazing partner in the equitation ring. I love his sweet personality and competitive heart. He is almost perfect - just keep him away from scary liverpools!
Quentin
Quentin is a Holsteiner foaled in 2010 who stands around 17.1 hands. He was my first horse - and he was a big one!. He is an incredible horse that gave me a great start in equitation. Unfortunately, his arthritis made jumping above 2'9 too painful. We made the decision to put his needs first and let him step down. He is currently on lease until he is ready to retire.
Bailey
Bailey is a Hanovarian foaled in 2019. He stands around 16.2 hands. He was imported from Germany to be a dressage horse, but quickly became a hunter/jumper as he loves to jump! We purchased him in 2025. He is amazing! I love showing him in the jumper ring. He is a sweet, snuggly puppy dog who is my forever heart horse!
Archie
Archie was the first equine I owned! He is a pony foaled in 2009 who stands at 14 hands. He was very green when we bought him, but I fell in love quickly. I learned so much from him - especially getting my first taste of the jumper ring! We are so grateful to have found someone else to sell him to who loves him deeply and will care for him the rest of his life!
William
William is an Irish Sport Horse foaled in 2018 who stands around 16.3 hands.. We imported him from Ireland in 2023 to be an equitation horse I could develop. It was apparent early on that he would shine in the hunter ring. Unfortunately, he developed some neurological symptoms and has been retired at a nearby farm where he is living his best life.
Catch Rides
I have had the opportunity to ride many other horses either in lessons or in the show ring. I absolutely love riding a variety of horses! Thanks to the many who have trusted me with their beloved mounts!
