About Me

For as long as I can remember, I've loved horses.  The first time I sat on a horse was when I was two and I took my first riding lesson when I was 8.  I have not been able to get rid of the horse bug since.

After high school I knew the only thing I could ever do to make me happy was pursue my love of horses.  I attended Centenary College and majored in their extensive equine studies program and graduated in May 2007.  While at Centenary I did hunter/jumpers, but my first love will always be with racehorses.

I have worked in multiple aspects of the equine industry.  I've done typical barnwork in both lesson and breeding farms.  When I was in school I picked up photography and found a love for capturing the beauty of horses.  Taking that skill, I worked for a racing publication and the official New York track photographer.  I have even branched out into working for a horse racing television network.

But I long to have contact with the horses, and that brought me to massage.  Since completing my training and certification I strive to form bonds with horses while bringing both them and their owners a bit of joy and comfort.
