The blog is back! After a healthy hiatus, I’m excited to be writing for all of you beautiful readers once again. Check out my short video about that below. It’s three in the morning. I tried to sleep, but I’m so energized by the last several days that sleep is a distant reality. I’ve …
The Gift of Time
Time is a precious gift that I am learning to appreciate more deeply than ever before. I am grateful to have a strong passion and drive to develop myself with horses. The more I learn, the more I’m inspired, the more I want to do, the more I want to learn. In this incredibly rejuvenating, …

A Heartfelt Approach to Medicine
I could say a lot of negatives about social media, but sometimes it serves a beautiful purpose. A couple of weeks ago, I received a heartfelt message from Victoria Korsos, a woman I haven’t seen in many years.

A Heart for Knowledge
As a farrier, continuing education is important to me. Every year my business partner, Rodd, and I travel to various clinics and conventions in Canada and the United States so we can keep learning, improving, and helping the horses we serve.
