Having received my American Riding Instructors Association ARICP Level II Certification to teach Dressage and Hunter Seat, I am presently teaching in Bozeman, Montana. In 2009, I was recognized by ARIA as one of the "Top 50 Riding Instructors in America".
I also own and operate two other businesses. Equestrian Educationals LLC coordinates Dr. Gerd Heuschmann's U.S. clinics. Dr. Heuschmann is one of the leading biomechanics veterinarians in Germany. Bridle Bookkeeping LLC, specializes in equine businesses and small farms.
In recent years, I have competed at A shows through second level and have participated in numerous clinics.
Born to a rodeo family in Billings Montana, I worked cows on ranches before college. Since that time I have spent more than 30 years riding in various English disciplines.
