Mandy has always been passionate about using her love for horses to help others. She first joined Silver Lining Riding as a lesson volunteer in 2017, and her dedication quickly grew. Determined to make a greater impact, she earned an Associate’s Degree in Equine Science at Scottsdale Community College, where she did her internship in therapeutic horsemanship, and became an instructor in the fall of 2019.

Now a PATH International certified instructor, Mandy leads our programs as the Program & Equine Manager. She works closely with her dedicated horse care team to ensure our herd receives the best care and training while creating a safe, enriching experience for our riders.

Outside of Silver Lining Riding, Mandy enjoys spending time with her husband, Bryan, and their four children. In her free time, she loves reading, roller skating, and working out.
