Over the years she has had the privilege of riding and studying under award winning trainers. She started learning to ride under the instruction of her mother Judy Pence, who has a bachelors degree in animal science and was a star student in the Cal Poly San Luis Obispo colt starting program and barn manager at a premier Arabian show barn.

When she was 13 she started training with David Ventura, a well known Dressage trainer in the Brentwood, CA area. She rode with him for 15 years learning to communicate with horses through seat and leg commands instead of pulling on their face and mouth. From there she went to ride with with her aunt, Rebecca Pence who helped her become a better Hunter/Jumper, schooling her to her first, first place ribbon in the jumping arena. 

She then became interested in barrel racing and started training her AQHA mare, from there she went on to compete in NBHA for 3 seasons going to state finals twice. She and her mare  won belt buckles and a championship saddle together. After retiring her mare she started training her daughter in, yet another discipline  under the instruction of Anthony Peixoto, a talented and amazing cutting trainer. She has been riding and training with him for the past three years and still continue to do so.
