My Story
For the past five years, I've had the privilege of sharing my passion for helping children grow through the power of horses at Palomino Hope. With more than 30 years of experience working with children and families, a master's degree in social services, and training as a Trust-Based Relational Intervention (TBRI) practitioner, I bring both professional knowledge and a whole lot of heart to the program.
I believe every child deserves a safe place to learn, grow, and shine. One of my greatest joys is watching children develop social-emotional skills, build confidence, and discover just how capable they truly are. I especially love the idea that the children we support today may become the mentors who guide and encourage others tomorrow.
When I'm not at the ranch, I enjoy spending time with my family, friends, and dogs. And if my favorite horse could talk? It would probably tell me to stop jumping around so much!
At Palomino Hope, my hope is that every child leaves knowing they matter, they belong, and they have something wonderful to offer the world.
