I’ve always had a deep affinity for horses that awoke in me at the age of four. It wasn’t until I was fortunate enough to obtain my own horse at the age of 13 that I was finally able to discover the magic and profound healing horses would play in my life.  Stella and I forged a connection that was undeniable to all those around us and we were connected in a way that only comes around once in a lifetime. 

I knew from a very young age that my path would revolve around horses. I later obtained my Bachelors of Science in Equestrian Studies from the University of Findlay that gave me a solid foundation of knowledge from training, nutrition, to unparalleled horse care. I had high ambitions of riding professionally but a potentially career-ending injury had made me change course. 

Ten years later when I unexpectedly lost my heart horse, Stella it led me down my spiritual journey that made me take accountability for my own healing. I was then put into alignment with my metaphysical teachers to develop my gifts. I wanted to make energy work tangible for all horse owners. Since we manifest all these ailments in our body I decided to become a Certified Equine Massage Therapist. This modality helped me connect the physical body with the emotional and spiritual body through energy work to give a whole horse approach that was unique to our industry. This style of intuitive bodywork I developed has been able to help horses and humans get to the root cause of issues that run deeper than muscles and find long lasting results they’ve been searching for. 

As a tribute to Stella and all she did for me I started Spirit Horse Collective to help heal horses in the way she helped heal me. I thank the Divine every day for bringing Stella into my life and all my other equine teachers, so I could develop my gift of being able to hear horses in ways others couldn’t.
