My first introduction to show horses was in 1976 and I have taken an active role in the Show Horse industry over that time. I have bred horses and my family has shown horses mainly in the western equine disciplines.

Having become involved in Clubs that ran shows, for all types of horse breeds, has been a great experience and I served on the committee of the NPHA for a period of 15 years.

I was fortunate to hold the role of General Manager at the AQHA for 8 years from August 2008 to August 2016 and when I retired I moved to Cairns QLD to spend time with my grandchildren.

I am a single dad with two sons, Lachlan and James and I manage a great stallion in Peptos Stylish Oak.

The world is sitting up and seeing what Australia is producing, both with riders and horses winning and placing at major events in the USA and one must also add that these riders are the product of the youth system that we must continue to support to nurture for riders and trainers of tomorrow.

We must also remember our past members and horses and ensure that their achievements are recorded and recognised so they are long remembered.
The AQHA is in a great position and will continue to grow and grow and with good management will continue to do so.
