I was raised on a Quarter Horse ranch and have ridden, showed, and trained horses my whole life. My daughter followed in my footsteps so I have been assisting her with her goals with horses. I am a certified teacher with 20 years experience teaching all subjects to students. I now am combining my love of horses with my love of teaching. 

 I create an engaging environment where every learner can thrive. Each learner will receive the attention and time they deserve.
