Valerie graduated from the University of Wyoming with a bachelor’s degree in Finance and Financial Services. She was born and raised on a ranch in Wyoming before attending UW. After college, she pursued a career in finance and insurance for several years before retiring and joining my team. An avid horse lover and owner, she appreciates every aspect of these wonderful animals. She comes with years of experience in cattle ranching and team roping in conjunction with her years of business experience. 

Aside from being a part of my team, she enjoys spending time with her husband and children. She is not one to stay home, so you can catch her at her kid’s sporting events, team roping, and helping out family and friends with ranching duties. I am honored to have her on my team, and you will find that you will enjoy her kindhearted, ethical, and hardworking nature.

Maddie grew up on a horse ranch in Wisconsin surrounded by her horses and animals, which shaped her lifelong passion for equine care and the western lifestyle. Having rodeoed and ridden for most of her life, she brings both experience and a deep understanding of the bond between people and their animals to her passion in her work. 
 

In her spare time, Maddie enjoys spending time in the mountains with her husband, horses, and dogs. Whether she’s riding, exploring the outdoors, or just enjoying the quiet of nature, she feels most at home surrounded by the animals and landscapes that she grew up loving.

Our dogs often join us during transports, offering comfort and companionship along the way. We couldn’t imagine doing this job without their company, they provide us with a much needed reassuring sense of security and protection while on the road. Being protective and loving of their owners, they are also welcoming and affectionate to clients. Feel free to ask to say hello anytime you see them in our trucks!
