Trainer & Owner
Jen has been riding and training horses for over 25 years. Her experience and passion for excellence in and out of the saddle has helped hundreds of riders become more confident and skillful equestrians. As a junior, she competed in equitation, jumpers, hunters, and eventing, qualifying for the Maclay Finals and winning Area IV year-end awards at both Training and Preliminary levels. She went on to win 9th at the Kentucky CCI* (long format) and then turned her attention back to the H/J ring when she lived in South Carolina, training green ponies for an acclaimed breeder. She then worked as an assistant at Baskin Farm in Saint Louis, prepping horses and ponies for some of the biggest shows in the country.
