Kyra began riding at the age of six, quickly developing a deep passion for horses and the sport. She went on to compete with Arabian horses in both Hunt Seat and Western disciplines, including Equitation and Pleasure classes. Showing on the Arabian “A” circuit throughout the East Coast, Kyra qualified for regional competitions and earned multiple Regional Championships in both Western and Hunt Seat divisions.

Her dedication to the sport led her to qualify for the Arabian Horse Youth Nationals, where she competed in Albuquerque, New Mexico with her horse, EAF Kidmann. There, Kyra achieved a National Top Ten finish, placing 7th overall in the country in Hunt Seat Equitation.

Kyra’s love of animals also inspired her academic path. After graduating from high school, she attended YTI Career Institute, where she became a Certified Veterinary Technician.

After taking several years away from riding, Kyra returned to the sport when her son began taking lessons at Serenity Farm at Linden Hall. It wasn’t long before she found herself back in the saddle as well. What began as weekly lessons soon developed into a passion for teaching, and Kyra now enjoys instructing riders of all ages and skill levels.

In 2023, Kyra purchased her Off-The-Track Thoroughbred (OTTB), Echo, and has enjoyed continuing his training and development. In 2025, she attended a Certified Horsemanship Association (CHA) clinic, where she earned her accreditation to teach riding lessons. Kyra continues to pursue ongoing education to expand her knowledge and refine her teaching methods.
