All my life I have loved horses and sought to learn all that I can about them. It is my hope to share my passion for horses with you, so you too can enjoy these amazing creatures in the beautiful Virginia countryside. Over the years, I have participated in eventing, horse showing, horse racing, pony club and fox hunting. I have reschooled former race horses and have taught many people to ride (including my children). I have taught therapeutic riding to people with a variety of challenges and am an Equine Specialist in Mental Health and Learning. With the exception of 10 years that I spent working in the Thoroughbred racing and breeding industry in Kentucky, I have lived my entire life in Virginia. There are lots of ways to be involved with horses in Virginia and I want to show you how. Virginia truly is for horse lovers!

Situated in the heart of Virginia’s horse country, the Middleburg Agricultural Research and Extension (MARE) Center is one of Virginia Tech’s 11 ARECs. Philanthropist Paul Mellon donated the 420-acre farm to Virginia Tech in 1949 to foster research that improved pasture and animal productivity while enhancing the land. The center was used primarily for beef cattle research for 40 years, but was rededicated to equine research and teaching in 1992.
Today, the MARE Center continues to play a critical role in the discovery, outreach, and education missions of Virginia Tech’s College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. Through collaborations with academic and industry partners around the world, the center advances the health and well-being of the horse through innovative research efforts and exceptional educational programming in equine science.
