Teaching Philosophy
I never want to diminish the innate passion that students have for being around horses. That’s why I strive to foster an environment that emphasizes ethical horsemanship and creates a positive, supportive space for my students.  My goal is to make learning both exciting and meaningful. In the classroom, I focus on teaching practical life skills that will help students succeed in the real world and become valuable contributors to the equine industry. I aim to leave a lasting impact by empowering my students to pursue their passions and become lifelong learners.

Training Philosophy 

My goal is to develop horses that are confident in their foundational skills so they can progress with calm assurance throughout their training. I strive to produce horses that enjoy their work while meeting breed and industry standards, with all training practices aligned thoughtfully with current judging criteria.
