Michelle joined Shepard Meadows in 2024. She is a graduate of UCONN with a degree in Animal Sciences, with an Equine Focus. In college she worked with young horses, training them to ride and drive. Michelle was always drawn to horses and started riding at the age of 10. Her dad gifted her with 3 riding lessons for her birthday and she never stopped! She is an experienced equestrian with a horse of her own at home.

We're excited to have her join us at the farm and look forward to her helping us with our systems, schooling our horses and helping in program too! Outside of work, Michelle loves trail riding with her Thoroughbred and spending time with her two dogs.
