I was born and raised in Colts Neck NJ and began riding at the age of 5. I became a professional in 2016 and have extensive experience working in the equine industry as a rider, trainer, barn manager, IHSA Coach and now business owner. In 2021 I started my business Striking Gold Stables LLC, providing hunter/ jumper horseback riding instruction for children and adults from beginner to advanced riders. My supportive and patient approach to teaching is proven to help riders progress regardless of what level you’re at. Additionally, I received my therapeutic riding instructor certification through PATH International in 2018 and provide riding instruction for children and adults with special needs.
