Every day I devote myself to listening to what each equine and owner need to keep them safe and performing to the best of their ability. Every animal and person has their own unique personality that needs to be heard so that we may figure out what’s best for them. At “Syncing Strides with Passive Partners LLC” I design programs the best suits the animal and their owners. I Maintained records of each horse's training history, behavioral changes, and health evaluations for future training. Assisting owners in developing a future plan for the equines best interest was most important. Everything from food and water intake to their exercise routine was vital to their well being.

Summary

Professionally running an Equine training facility for over 30 years. Highly attentive with Animal and the owners safety and well-being. Dressing important concerns with health before starting any training program is vital to an animals well-being. I’ve worked in retail for a few years before starting my own training business, as well as working at a few horse, training and boarding facilities as well. With many years of experience working around animals and people I’ve learned many things that were highly beneficial to the animals, well-being and also some things that unfortunately made their behaviors and well-being worse.
