Don't bother trying to become a professional, you don't come from money.

Your silly little horsey job isn't a career.

You didn't do the young riders or the U25, you missed the boat.

You're Crazy. (This one is probably true)

These are just a handful of things said to me over the years. There have been times that I started to believe these things, but every day I showed up anyway.

Well, my bronze and silver medals came in the mail today and reminded me that I get to make the "impossible" possible every day. I have students, clients, owners, coaches and sponsors who have all instead said "We believe in you," and got me here.

If this is what one year can bring, I can't wait to see where I am in 10. Thank you to my village that makes it possible. Gold here we come!

Not a bad first season ☺️

Completed all my scores for my Bronze and Silver medals my first competition season- not something you often see. So incredibly grateful for my owners and clients who made it possible, and Elizabeth Caron for coaching me through. Manifesting the gold medal next.

In the midst of the madness I also started MMA and have been so grateful to be around the people at Ascension Athletics. They push me forward as an athlete both mentally and physically. (Getting punched in the face makes riding around a sand box a lot less intimidating)

I give full credit to Mary Jo Zanolli for keeping my head on straight at home. Thank you for all you do at Rockland Farm.

And of course thank you to my sponsors CWD - Caroline Dakin: Connecticut, RI, Cape Cod & Springfield/Pittsfield for keeping my horses comfortable and to EnviroEquine and Pet for filling the gaps in my horses’ nutritional needs to keep them performing at their best.

Such a special stallion ✨ Every day I think I can’t love him any more and every day I do.

I’ll never forget the first time I sat on him was supposed to be a saddle fitting and I couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to the saddle😂 I was just giggling like a little kid

Fun weekend getting some miles in the ring with Pattaconk Farm’s Hidde at Mystic Valley Hunt Club, Inc.’s Dressage by the Sea.

Had a lot of energy to manage day 1 but still managed to finish first 🥇 Day 2 we improved our score to 67%+ but definitely tired from the day before so lacking impulsion in some spots and finished 2nd.

Overall very happy with him and now we get to spend the winter improving and working on new things 😁 Always a big thank you to my owners, staff, clients, family, and the entire village who has made my first show season such a success.
