Shannon, a Tacoma native, became a top U.S. show jumping competitor at the young age of 17. As a teen, she
qualified for the Junior Jumper Finals in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania, two years in a row. This exclusive competition admits only 40 under-18 riders
from the U.S. Only four from the Northwest. On her second try she came home with a 2nd. That same year Shannon and her little mare, "Stage
Struck" won the $15,000 Milner Downs, Canada, Grand Prix. She has also won all of the zone medals for zone nine and numerous year end
championships in both hunters and jumpers.

As a pro, Shannon knows the "ins and outs" of competition on the highest levels. As a result her students are
confident and successful.
Additionally, Shannon continues to be a student the sport herself. She works hard to stay abreast of trends, changes and improved training methods. Attending clinics hosted by accomplished individuals in the Hunter- Jumper industry keeps her "tuned up" and well informed. |

"Clients appreciate that I will find them nice horses that are
reasonably priced and am willing to put in the necessary time and training to make a good mount."
