I’m a certified equine professional with years of hands-on experience in coaching, training, performance, and care. I now offer Equine Sports Massage Therapy to help horses move better, recover faster, and feel their best.

Why I Chose Equine Sports Massage
I’ve spent my life riding and caring for horses—it’s more than a career; it’s who I am. Over the years, I’ve learned that true horsemanship is about more than just training technique or saddle time. It’s about listening deeply to our horses and understanding what they need to feel and perform their best.
While living in Raleigh, NC, I met a talented equine massage therapist named Kodi Evans of Equine Unwind. Watching her work was eye-opening. After just one session with my horse, I could feel an immediate difference—softer movement, more relaxation, and better focus. That experience changed everything for me. I knew I had to learn this work.
Massage gave me a whole new way to communicate with horses. Now, I can feel imbalances, overuse, and areas of compensation through their muscles—clues that help me support their overall wellbeing. It’s become an invaluable part of my training toolbox.
By restoring balance and relieving pain, I help horses feel better in their bodies—and that means better movement, better performance, and a happier partner for their rider. I also provide riders with simple, targeted exercises they can use both on the ground and in the saddle to keep their horse progressing and pain-free.
This work is personal to me. Every session is an opportunity to help a horse move and feel their best—and that’s a job I never take lightly. Want to learn more about me? Visit my Youtube Channel or my About Me section
