Not a day goes by that I’m not in awe of the amazing Zeke! I am so grateful for the opportunity to build a partnership with him thanks to ! ❤️ I owe a lot of my development and confidence as a rider to what I’ve learned from him and Gary since I began riding him 4 months ago. He knows how to keep me on my toes and makes sure I know when I make a mistake! Most importantly, he makes me laugh and shows me what a real athlete feels like. Love you lots Zeke and can’t wait to see what the future has in store for us! Photo credits go to the talented and wonderful and wearing one of my favorite outfits from ! Thank you!!

I’m writing a public letter to everyone who has been a part of my life in any way, shape or form. Since I have moved to Florida, I have undergone the most profound mental, physical and spiritual changes that I’ve ever had in my entire life. I feel like every day I run through the entire spectrum of emotions, and now I finally understand why.

Today I can say with the utmost confidence and honesty that I have Autism, ADHD, paired with an above-average IQ and the rarest Myers-Briggs personality type for women: INTJ. All of these traits explain everything about myself since I was born, and those who know me from the Bay Area, can totally attest to this 100%. We are all on the spectrum. And I am tired of hiding this from myself and the world, in fear of being harshly judged and seen in a negative light. Because being Autistic isn’t the same as being crazy. We simply see the world in ways others don’t, and that scares us. But what goes unsaid goes misunderstood. My mission as of now is to promote neurodiversity awareness, specifically for those who are high-functioning, and also women. So often our symptoms are misinterpreted by the public, ourselves, and the medical profession entirely. We show signs of disorder, anxiety, depression and addiction, which is often addressed with pills and other medications. But Autism isn’t a disease to be fixed with chemicals in every case. It is a change of view. And we all know the world needs this more now than ever.

We perceive things that no one else can, but we struggle to communicate this. We are so incredibly misunderstood, undervalued and under-represented. The lack of data on this issue speaks volumes, and that’s because no one is talking about it. So I will. For as much as I am intimidated by the weight of this issue, it just further validates the fact that it is up to me to speak out. Because I see it all around me. I see it in the most incredible, intelligent individuals who have the power to change the world. But they don’t see it in themselves like I do. And I understand why. Autism/ADHD/INTJ thinking is so layered and complicated.. (please go to Facebook for the whole letter, thank you!)

Feeling super confident and elated with how much progress we’ve made over the past 2 months! Every day I learn something significant, and feel continuously inspired. I’ve been lucky to learn from some of the most well-educated horses I’ve ever ridden! So grateful for the wonderful Mariposa who constantly exceeds my expectations and never gives me less than 110%. Super huge thanks to the experts of Marcus Fyffe Dressage: David, Nicholas and Katrina for teaching me so much already! Super excited to keep training and improving!

After a road trip of a life time, we arrived in Florida style during a torrential rain and thunderstorm! Mannie and I made so many great memories as we stopped in Palm Springs, San Antonio and New Orleans.

Huge thanks to the wonderful team at for your expert care of Mariposa, she is so happy here!

I am still processing the whirlwind of a week we all had in Wellington! I am overwhelmed with gratitude and renewed with a new sense of determination. We had the privilege of being influenced by more greats of the industry, including Adrienne Lyle, Betsey Juliano, the Bills, Jennifer Williams, Charlotte Jorst & Charlotte Bredhal, Anna Buffini, George Williams, Jodi Lees and Reese Koffler-Stanfield! I am blown away by their generosity with their time and vulnerability, where they passionately shared their journeys to success. I gained so much life advice, as well as in-depth insights into the art of dressage! I cannot thank everyone at TDF enough! I am also so thankful to have been part of a very inspiring group of peers to share this special experience with. I know we will all go on to accomplish so much more because of this opportunity. Thank you!

03/03/2022

We had a fantastic second day! I was thrilled to see David Marcus and Nicholas Fyffe in action and work their dressage magic. We then saw the 4* GP at Global to give us a taste of the big ring! Kathy Connelly was very generous with her time to carefully teach us about long lining and half-halts! Thank you so much to TDF for another day of beautiful stables and expert trainers!

03/03/2022

What a day! Our first day in Wellington was full of inspiration and wisdom from Sabine Schut-Kery, Scott Hassler and JJ Tate! We also had the privilege of meeting Jane Cleveland and getting the grand tour of the amazing Poinciana Farm! Thank you so much to TDF for this amazing opportunity!
