A longtime horse owner, Jennifer rode hunter-seat equitation and eventers before focusing on dressage. She is a USDF bronze and silver medalist. In 2017, she and her Westfalen gelding, Dux, earned a reserve championship at the Great American/USDF Region 8 championships and finished in the top ten at the US Dressage Finals.
