Owner of Extra Mile Equine LLC

If you're reading this chances are you are also a horse person. Like many of us I have a deep love and fascination for horses, I think I was probably born with this quality.

I began riding horses when I was 10 and working in the dude string industry when I was 16. Since then I've worn many hats from wrangler, to barn manager, to groom. I'm grateful to have been a part if so many different areas of the horse community because it ultimately led me to starting Extra Mile Equine. 

​

I noticed one commonality through all the different horses I've worked with: healthy horses are happy horses and you can't make an unhappy horse do anything well. 

​

I also noticed that it takes a village to keep horses performing at their finest. Though a team approach with equine professionals collaborating, I believe that all horses can truly thrive. I decided to take a class in Equine Massage and start my adventures into bodywork so that I can be apart of that team and give back to equine athletes!
