Staff Changes

We are sad to say goodbye to Kira, Sarah, Elissa and Sam. Kira, Brad and Graham have moved to Baltimore, Sarah is currently working at Camp Seafarer and Elissa and Sam will be with us until the end of July.

They have all been wonderful colleagues and I wish them all the best with the next phase of their life’s journey.

I am happy to welcome two new employees to our team. You can read about them in this announcement sent by Peggy to Equestrian Students.

Ashley Foster will be joining us as a hunter seat instructor and the coach of the IHSA Hunter Seat Team. Ashley will be assisting with the "C" Show Team as well. Ashley has served as the Head Coach for the Kansas State NCAA Equestrian Team for the past 4 years. She is a graduate of Virginia Tech and competed in IHSA Nationals in Open Flat and Fences as an undergraduate student. Ashley and her husband and their two dogs and one cat will be living in Southern Pines.

Stephanie Davis will be joining us as our Barn Manager. Stephanie graduated from St. Andrews with a degree in Equine Business Management several years ago and has worked as a barn manager in Southern Pines and Lexington, KY and as a veterinary technician for the last few years with a large equine veterinary practice in Lexington, KY. Stephanie and her dog and two cats will be living in Laurinburg.

Ashley and Stephanie will start work with us August 1. I know that you will welcome both of them to our St. Andrews family.
