Sterling and I train and coach reiners out of our family facility in Sturgeon, MO which is located about fifteen minutes north of Columbia. Sterling focuses primarily on training and showing horses from their first ride to finished show horse, and I recently came out of "retirement" and began coaching again.

Sterling and "Festus" were money earners in the Ltd Open Futurity-the draw of a bad cow kept them out of the finals- and he and Dunnits QT Dynasty were Res Champions in the Ltd Open Hackamore!

Until 2009 I showed in Non-Pro classes. 2006 I qualified for the AQHA World Show in AM Reining and in 2007 qualified again for the World Show, but that time in the AM Cow Horse. Sujos Nica and I were 5th in the Preliminaries and 10th in the finals. That year we also were Res Champion in the Ltd Non-Pro Bridle Spectacular at the Sagebrush Classic and NRCHA World show qualifier in two regions.
