He was one of those kids that knew from the very beginning that he wanted to be a horse trainer. Got his first horse at age 9 and it took off from there. Went to College at Black Hawk Community College and graduated with a Equestrian Science Degree and from there started working for Jeff Greaves Performance horses! Jeff was a big influence to where he is today! He enjoys the all around events because it’s a challenge. A challenge of getting the horse and rider to dance together doing multiple things. When it all comes together it’s a great thing to watch.
