Stefani’s love for horses began at a very early age. She begged her parents for years to for the chance to learn how to ride. She began taking lessons in middle school, focusing on hunter/jumpers, and her passion has never wavered. After graduating college with a degree in environmental science, Stefani was working in a barn when she met the farrier who would spark her interest in the hoof care world.

Soon after, Stefani began apprenticing part time with as many farriers as she could with the goal of one day attending farrier school. In December of 2023 Stefani graduated from the Farrier Program at Cornell University and returned home to North Carolina to join Shod Steed and turn her passion for horses and farriery into her career. She takes a particular interest in shoeing to manage lameness and conformation issues.

Stefani is a member of the American Farriers Association and the North Carolina Horseshoers Association. When she isn’t shoeing or riding horses she enjoys practicing historical fencing and hiking in Duke Forest.

Ezra became fascinated with farriery when he was a young child. Learning to ride at age 5, he spent many hours in the barn watching horses and the people who worked with them. He showed his pony as an Open Hunter and in Carriage Driving. Eventually, he showed in the Saddle Seat and Pleasure Driving arenas with his Morgan mare.

As his interest in horses grew, so did his love of blacksmithing and metalworking. As a young adult, Ezra taught the Metalworking merit badge at Camp Raven K**b, a Scout BSA Camp. He was able to fund his Eagle Scout project with the sales of his hand-forged items. He was invited to be the guest Blacksmith at the Silk Hope Old Fashioned Farmer’s Days.

Ezra trimmed his first horse at the age of sixteen, and began working toward becoming a full-time farrier. He attended the Horseshoeing Introduction Intensive at Casey and Son Horseshoeing School and regularly participates in a local Farrier/Veterinarian round table discussions. Ezra is a member of the North Carolina Horseshoers Association. With his natural passion for horses and their well-being and his love of moving and shaping metal, Ezra improves the lives of horses and their owners.

Geoff Morrison is a classically trained farrier, having trained under the instruction of two Certified Journeyman Farriers. He serves clients in North Carolina’s Piedmont region. As an engineer educator and life-long equine enthusiast, his career has evolved from rider to farrier, a role he views as a front-line health care provider. His work is multidisciplinary from dressage, hunters, three-day eventers to endurance horses, walking horses, and trail horses. Each discipline offers unique learning opportunities that a single discipline farrier would not encounter.

His work reveals a traditionalist view combined with the technical accuracy of a knowledgeable horseman. His style is one of fierce pragmatism and a close scrutiny of new products and theories. “My job depends very heavily on the ability to discern fad and gimmicks from genuine technological advances in the science of equine podiatry.” Geoff is often called upon for his capabilities in therapeutic treatment of horses suffering with lameness. He feels his close relationship with these truly majestic animals inspires him to the highest levels of professional achievement.

Geoff is a member of both the American Farriers’ Association and the North Carolina Horseshoers’ Association. He supports the tenants of education, certification, communication, research, and innovation. His commitment to education requires review of AAEP research, and through continued professional reading and study he constantly strives to help horses perform at their optimal level with comfort and ease of movement.
