Courses:
ASCI 119 Equine Training Techniques
ASCI 121 EQUUS
ASCI 125 Equine Instructing Techniques
ASCI 205 Equine Reproduction and Management

I teach two equine management and production courses and two equine technique classes at UVM. All four of these courses incorporate laboratory experiences emphasizing the “hands-on” approach. In addition, I am the supervisor of EQUUS, the cooperative management program taught at the Ellen Hardacre Equine Center on the UVM campus. I am the faculty advisor to the UVM Equestrian Team and the UVM Dressage Team.

To enhance their educational experience, equine students are encouraged to participate in an internship, design their own special projects with school horses and/or engage in undergraduate research studies. My personal research interest is improving the storage of fresh-cooled and frozen stallion semen. This work is done in collaboration with the UVM Morgan Horse Farm in Weybridge, VT and the W.H. Miner Agricultural Research Institute in Chazy, NY.
