Personal Statement
I am a California native whose involvement with horses spans nearly 40 years. I attended college and graduate
schools on the East Coast while also spending nine years training with Olympic veteran and coach
George H. Morris. I have worked at numerous sale barns and participated in show jumping competitions
throughout the US and Canada. I currently own and operate Blue Water Farms, a hunter/jumper training and
sales facility. I developed a curriculum based program for my facility and have found over the years that
students do best in a structured, well rounded program. I believe strongly that standardization and continuing
education, will greatly advance our industry, promote safety, and optimize care and management of our equine
partners.
