Horses have been at the center of my life for over 30 years. I grew up in the world of Three-Day Eventing. My journey took me from Bit-O-Woods Farm in Hainesport, NJ, to being a working student for Mark Weissbecker.

At 19, I took a leap in a different direction, joining the United States Air Force. My military service carried me all over the world, and no matter where I landed, I found a way to be in the saddle—whether it was jumpers, dressage, western pleasure, or returning to my eventing roots. Those experiences broadened my horsemanship and my 16 years of military service taught me the adaptability, problem-solving, and resilience which I bring to every aspect of my life and work.

These days, I train with top-level professionals like Sally Cousins and Silva Martin, and I was fortunate enough to attend the inaugural Camp Windurra in 2024, where I learned from Boyd Martin, Silva Martin, Anna Buffini, and Peter Wylde. Each opportunity has reinforced the three core values I live by with horses: partnership, respect, and continual growth.

Today, I call South Jersey home, where I share life with my daughter, my Mom, Lisa, and our two dogs, Remington and Winnie. My passion lies in helping both horses and riders reach their potential—not just in the arena, but in building the trust, understanding, and connection that make this sport so rewarding.

• Welfare First – Every decision starts with the question, “What’s best for the horse?” From training plans to daily care, their physical and mental well-being is my top priority.

• Partnership Over Performance – True success comes from trust and respect between horse and rider. Results matter, but the relationship matters more.

• Education & Growth – I’m committed to lifelong learning, both for myself and the riders I work with. The more we know, the better we can serve the horses in our care.
