Chris brings over 30 years of construction and maintenance experience to San Dieguito Equine.
In 2006, he earned his California State Contractor’s License and operated his own cabinet and woodworking business, managing projects from initial design and measurement to fabrication, installation, and long-term upkeep.
Chris’s experience extends well beyond cabinetry. He has handled a wide range of construction and maintenance responsibilities, including performing the practical, day-to-day improvements that keep facilities running efficiently and safely.
In his spare time, Chris continues to build and maintain structures—most notably the retirement facility he constructed for his wife’s horse, which keeps him busy with its ongoing maintenance needs. He also enjoys playing music, cooking, and fishing.
Laura Zeller has been a part of the San Dieguito Equine team since 2011 with a brief hiatus to run her family Bakery. She has worked in a diversity of fields, including the surf industry, owning a small business, and becoming a certified Equine Massage therapist.
Laura first became interested in horses as a child, taking riding lessons in Illinois, but it wasn’t until much later in life when her two sons left for college that Laura truly got the itch. Along with her husband, Laura has made their rural Valley Center home a refuge to many horses, dogs, and various other farm animals, including pigs and goats. Laura has two grown sons and has recently been promoted to the title of Grandma!
