A life long equestrian, my strengths lie in clear communication and instilling confidence in both horse and rider. I enjoy starting young prospects in correct ground manners, flat work and over fences. Student's praise my ability to teach a skill that fits their method of understanding, as well as patience and drive to help accomplish their goals.

Location: 

I am currently in Douglas County, Colorado, traveling to teach lessons and to horses in training at my clients location. I also have a select few clinics scheduled throughout the year. If you are interested in having a clinic at your barn, please contact me.
