While attending Humboldt State University in 1978, I was introduced to my first Arabian horse.  It was only after watching Bey Shah at liberty in Grants Pass, Oregon did I know that a life long commitment with Arabian horses was in store for me.

Between 1978 and 1989, I concentrated on studying pedigrees, developing my preferences, and learning about the breed.  I created an ideal Arabian image in my mind and started breeding toward my goal.

Upon graduating nursing school and after a long search for the perfect mare, I found Kaiyete (Kaiyoum x Lady Eter). 

  After Fames Fax (1994 U.S. Reserve National Champion) was born, I knew I was on the right track.  

Today, all of my breeding decisions are made with my daughter, Lauren, and we try hard to be mavericks in the breeding arena.  Our goal with every foal is to improve the quality and preserve Arabian type.

  We are trying to raise the standard without sacrificing athleticism.  We want to imprint ourselves in the Arabian archives as making an improvement in the breed.  We welcome you to be a part of making history with us.
