Holistic, evidence-aware hoof care that considers the whole horse
I am a Whole-Horse Hoof care practitioner based in Northwest Georgia dedicated to a progressive, science‑based approach that supports each horse in finding its most comfortable, balanced self. My work focuses on understanding the horse as a complete system – body and mind- requiring thoughtful, individualized care that promotes soundness, comfort, and long‑term hoof health. I received my certification through Mackinaw Dells 2 , and now serve as a level 3 mentor for future graduates.
I operate Franciscan Acres – a welfare-based track boarding system in Dallas, Ga. My partner, Michael, and I enjoy trail riding, horse camping and spending time with our 5 Arabians, 2 heelers and 4 goats.
