Instructor
I bring over 19 years of experience in the saddle. Horses have been a lifelong passion, shaping both my riding and teaching approach from an early age.
I offer English and Western lessons for all levels, from beginners to advanced riders. My focus is on safety, confidence, and clear communication between horse and rider, creating a supportive environment where students can grow at their own pace.
Whether you’re building strong fundamentals or refining advanced skills, I tailor each lesson to help you reach your riding goals with confidence and clarity.
Part Time Instructor
Horses have been a part of my life for as long as I can remember, shaping not only my skills but my character. Although I stepped away from the horse world at 18, the passion and drive I built in the saddle never left me. Now, I’m excited to step back in with a renewed purpose—sharing that passion through teaching the next generation of riders.
I’m dedicated to creating a positive, supportive environment where kids can grow in confidence, build strong foundational skills, and truly enjoy the experience of riding.
For me, it’s not just about learning how to ride—it’s about developing a connection, a sense of accomplishment, and a lifelong love for horses.
Beginner Student Instructor
I’ve been riding horses since I was a toddler, and it’s been a lifelong passion ever since. I’m especially drawn to barrel racing and speed events, where timing, precision, and instinct matter most.
That same excitement is what I love bringing into my lessons—helping beginner riders build confidence, develop a strong foundation, and experience the thrill of riding from the very start.
