I specialize in, but not limited to, eventers, hunters, jumpers and dressage. I completed the nine month farrier program at the Kentucky Horseshoeing School in March 2020 and went on to apprentice for 2.5 years to two well known and respected farriers, Conrad Trow CJF, DipAWCF and Gage Morgan CJF. Through working with Mr. Trow and Mr. Morgan I have been able to greatly increase my skill set and gain the experience needed to build a business of my own. I love working with horses and becoming a farrier has been one of the most fulfilling endeavors I have undertaken.
