Experience in the area
I have been riding for over 23 years. As a kid I participated in 4H and Pony Club. I then worked as a groom and catch rode to pay my entry fees in the A Circuit.

I continue my dedication in this industry by offering visual design services for equine businesses including, graphic design, web development, and photography.
