I have been riding and showing horses for over 40 years. My predominant focus has been in the Arabian, Half-Arabian, and Andalusian breeds. I started out riding saddle seat, working hunters, and western pleasure. After graduating from college, my focus shifted to dressage, sport horse and western dressage. I also owned and operated my own breeding program for over 20 years. I love the horse industry. I have kept my amateur status so I can show and enjoy what I have created in my breeding. I have served on the Board of Directors for the IALHA for several years and am now the chair of the USEF Andalusian/Lusitano Committee.
