Liam earned us 10th at .eq this weekend! Got it together after not being able to ride too much due to grad school. Such a lovely weekend!

Some criminals in action, as seen on the neighbor trail cam. Luckily they were all reasonable citizens when asked to return home 😂

Hi everyone!

I have some updates. As most of you know, I am in my masters program and will be graduating in June. I decided to pursue a PhD, which I will start to apply for this summer. In addition to this, I will be taking some certificate classes and graduate level math classes while I wait to be accepted into a program. Programs I am applying to are out of state.

Due to this, I have decided to no longer teach riding lessons. After a lot of deliberation (and tears), I found this to be the best route for me.
This decision was not done lightly. I appreciate all of you so deeply for being such incredible clients. Some of you have been with me since I started teaching lessons, a wonderful 3 years ago. I cherish everything you have given me and our time together.

There will be some more changes throughout the year, but I am feeling bittersweet about this overall. I am excited for my new adventures as an adult ammy but will miss teaching everyone.

I appreciate everyones’s support!
