Hello, I would like to take the time to tell you a little about myself and my training methods. I am 30 years old and have been around horses my entire life. It wasn’t until I got a little older that I started training horses. My first teacher was my step mom. I would help her train the horses to ride whether it was hot, green, and never ridden Thoroughbreds or mellow, mostly quiet, Quarter Horses. I loved and still love every minute I get to spend with those majestic, beautiful, intelligent, animals.

I believe that Mr. Clinton Anderson said it best “your frustration begins when your knowledge ends”. Which is why I’m constantly researching, learning, and training from numerous trainers both famous and not. I have studied many trainers which include but not limited to Ray Hunt (RIP), Clinton Anderson, Pat Parelli, Monty Roberts, Warwick Schiller, Walter Zettl, Brian Nubert, and many more. I have even done research on YouTube watching videos of other “unknown” to the public yet trainers. I pride myself on being prepared for any problem big or small. No horse is the same and not one “method” works on every horse.... See More
