A little bit about me: I have been riding horses since I was 9 and pursued show jumping in my riding career. I went on to teaching lessons of all ages (4-65 yo) the importance of proper flat work and biomechanics. I studied Animal Biology at the University of Guelph, with Equine Nutrition and Gentics as two subjects I find I am most passionate about. I enjoy teaching stable management and helping form the next generation of horse lovers. When I am not at work, I enjoying spending my time training, grooming or riding my own 2 personal horses or taking care of my pot bellied pig.
