Lisa joins the team at the Center for Adaptive Riding after serving 18 years as the executive director for a statewide industry association. She was a founding board member and served over 17 years for the Northern Nevada branch of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, and previously worked as a government relations executive. Her lifelong passions have been serving the community and horses. As an equestrian, she competed successfully in show jumping for over 20 years on the west coast. Her love of horses has influenced every aspect of her life and given her a deep understanding of the healing powers the connection with a horse provides. Lisa earned her master’s degree in public administration and policy (MPA) from the University of Nevada Reno. |
Janet grew up having horses and after a career and raising three wonderful children with her husband Richard, she wanted to get back to being with these amazing creatures. She was thrilled to find The Center for Adaptive Riding. Over the years, she has had many opportunities to volunteer and give my time. For Janet, it has always been “about people”. As Program Director, she now gets to put her love of horses and love of people together. She is honored to be on this wonderful journey with CAR.
