Parents describe Susie as a world-class trainer, breeder, and published Morgan horse expert who opens her home to everyone and builds relationships and trust with students and parents, with a barn full of ribbons showing years of accomplishments. One parent from Hollister shared that Susie agreed to teach their daughter when she was just shy of 3 years old and interested in Western riding, and that Susie’s focus on safety on and off the horse helped them feel comfortable. Another parent from Hollister, who brings two beginner children for lessons, describes Susie as engaging, knowledgeable, and encouraging, and notes that the horses and facilities are beautiful. Susie is also noted as someone who frequently attends 49er games and builds relationships and trust with her students and their parents.
