A Colorado native; her professional career was by and large centered on the managing of the family ranch and farm.
Dee’s experience in the professional world spans over 25years as an office administrator to office manager, in several different fields.
Dee’s love of the west and the “romance” of the American Cowboy were strongly influenced by her Grandmother an accomplished equestrian from Montana. Her Grandfather was a farm boy from Tennessee and taught her the importance of animal husbandry. Dee’s greatest influence for her love and knowledge of the horse came from her Uncle Bud, a Cowboy through and through to the bone. It was his teaching and discipline that she truly learned to ride and to appreciate what the horse and the openness of the Colorado had to give to a human soul. Her grandfather read to her Ivanhoe and introduced her to The Scottish Chiefs, Pilgrim's Progress, and Swiss Family Robinson. Uncle Bud introduced her to the works of Will Rodgers, Zane Gray and Louis Lamoure. Dee soaked up all the information she could from the “old timers” about raising Horses and Cattle.
Dee express sadness that it seems that there is not one American family that has not been touched by disease be it a medical condition to a form of Drug abuse and alcoholism. The magnitude is constant. Dee considers it a responsibility to express our humanity to all our fellow mankind.
“I want to share my love for the west, its hard yet simple way of life and the joy of riding a horse on the open range. This is my first love and passion in life and with that I can share and give back to so many that have given to me personally.”
