My Story
Credentials earned
in the
show ring.
I didn't come to this sport through a textbook. I came through early mornings at the barn, six-figure show budgets, multi-circuit travel schedules, and the weight of decisions that most families are left to navigate alone.
My experience is grounded in results. My daughter earned the Maclay Region 6 Championship and competed at the ASPCA Maclay Finals. Last season she qualified for three national finals: Maclay, NCEA, and Hamel Foundation. The Maclay Regional Championship itself is what earned her a spot at Maclay Finals. All three qualifications came from a deliberately planned season, not luck. That kind of outcome doesn't happen by accident.
This season the plan is equally deliberate. She is targeting four national finals: NCEA, ASPCA Maclay, USEF/Dover, and WIHS. Every show entry, every circuit decision, and every travel commitment this year is mapped against those four endpoints. That process of building a show calendar backward from a defined goal is exactly what I help other families do.
"The families spending $100K a year on this sport deserve more than guesswork. I've done the work. Let me save you the detours."
Behind that competitive record is an operational reality most people don't see: years of coordinating a full A-circuit schedule across multiple national venues, managing horse shipping logistics, housing, entries, and the strategic calculus of which shows to prioritize. There was no playbook for our family when we started. I wrote it. Now I help others use it.
As a competing adult amateur with two horses, I understand this sport from both sides: as a rider and as the person responsible for every decision that surrounds the riding. That combination is what makes this consulting substantive.
