Jenna Dewald

Administrative Assistant

Jenna’s love for horses began at a young age, when her parents enrolled her in riding lessons alongside her sister. What started as a casual hobby soon grew into a deep passion for all aspects of horsemanship.

As Pony Club graduate with HB and C3 ratings, Jenna spent her early years competing in eventing and later explored western disciplines to broaden her skills and versatility as a rider.

Jenna is an invaluable part of our administration, having not only an in-depth equestrian background and detail-oriented computer skills, but also an exceptional commitment to customer service.

When she isn’t working, Jenna enjoys training her young prospect, spending time outdoors with her German Shepherds, and always having music playing in the background.
