Horses have always been a big part of my life. Pleasure riding is my focus.  Harmony is the goal I set for my students.  I have been riding since the age of 6, all styles from barrel racing to hunters.  I am always expanding my own knowledge as well in the art of Dressage and horsemanship by attending clinics and seminars.  I graduated from Umass Amherst, from the Stockbridge School of Agriculture with a degree in Equine Industries.  It was there I studied the fine art of Horsemanship from the talented staff at the campus stables, Hadley Farm.  

Since graduation I have been instructing in english and western pleasure, as well as hunt seat. I am a patient teacher that sets obtainable goals for  all my students, whether you would like to ride for pleasure or show I will help you acheive balance and harmony with your horse.  

Teaching camps and lessons  gave way for a need to break down the skills nessasary for confidence in the saddle.  I created the "ABC's of riding" to clarify the Principles of Riding. With a understanding of these simple principles anyone can ride.
