A PhD experimental psychologist, with a lifetime teaching certificate in secondary education, Sandy, a bronze medalist, combines psychology with over 40 years of experience riding to help equestrians reach their potential. She was named “Teacher of the Year” for her university twice, and an “Outstanding Teacher for the State of Missouri.”  
 
Mounts she has trained have won USDF Horse of the Year and All Breed awards, USEA National and Area V awards and USEF National and Zone awards as well as numerous regional awards.  Her small barn, Sunshine Stables, in Sealy Texas, just West of Houston assures individual attention to horses in training.

In addition to training and giving lessons, she coaches riders in the use of psychology to improve their riding, giving mounted and un-mounted clinics nationwide. People who attend her clinics and talks consistently comment on the practical application of the material and how much fun they had.
