Riding was my first language. I was in the saddle by age two, competing in pony hunters by four, and spent my high school years at a specialized equestrian boarding school. Equine excellence was my entire upbringing, shaped by a rare blend of heritage, visual artistry, and high-level performance.

My roots run deep across every corner of the horse world. I grew up under the influence of a mother who modeled and understood visual grace, and a grandmother who starred in 1950's Buffalo Bill Westerns, carrying the frontier onto the silver screen. My father was a proud member of the historic Los Rancheros Visitadores, instilling in me a lifelong respect for Western tradition and true horsemanship.

My professional foundation was built on show jumping, where I trained in Europe, claimed national championships, and competed internationally. In the Western world, I fully immersed myself in the NRCHA circuit, pairing show-ring miles with real ranch work. From winning my first buckle in team penning and driving cattle across western states, to starting my own colts, that broad range of seat time in different disciplines gives me a deep toolbox for riding and working with all types of horses. Today, I'm continuing to expand that toolkit by learning the exciting sport of Mounted Shooting.
 
Whether I am on a film set or in a private arena, my goal remains the same: to honor the horse, respect the heritage, and pass on the true ways of a life spent in the saddle.
