🖤🐉 Big dreams and exciting things ahead for Ellie and I in 2027!
This year, we were incredibly honored to be awarded the $25,000 Dressage Foundation Debbie McDonald FEI Riders Fund Grant! This incredible opportunity will help us take the next steps in our journey together as we set our sights on some big goals for 2027.
With the support of this grant, we will be heading to Florida to train with Anne Gribbons, compete in CDI-W competitions, and pursue potential qualification for the FEI World Cup™ Finals and the 2027 Pan American Games.
As a self-funded athlete, opportunities like this make such a meaningful difference in helping turn these dreams into reality. I am beyond grateful to The Dressage Foundation for believing in us and investing in our future.
It truly takes a village to make a journey like this possible, and I want to thank all of my incredible sponsors, my supporters, and everyone who cheers Ellie and me on along the way. Your encouragement, generosity, and belief in us mean more than you know. 🖤
While this grant is an incredible step forward, we will still need to do some fundraising to make this next chapter possible. If you would like to support our journey, tax-deductible donations can be made through Southern California Equestrian Sports at the link below:

Every contribution, share, and word of encouragement helps us get one step closer to these goals.
Ellie is truly the horse of a lifetime, and I cannot wait to see what we can accomplish together. The hard work continues, and we are just getting started! 🖤🐉
