Hello! Bonjour!
​
I'm Marie,
​
Since I was a little girl I dreamed of becoming a professional equestrian competing on the world stage. Thanks to hard work and determination that dream came true. But in 2015, at age 24, I fell off my horse and suffered a serious traumatic brain injury. Today I'm not just fighting to regain what I lost, I'm also training for the Paralympic Games!
​
Path to Paris 2024!
​
Qualifying for the Paralympic Games requires partnerships, sponsors and powerful storytelling. The path is long but the journey is undeniably breathtaking!

We are champions!
Making Team USA was a significant milestone on my path to Paris. Each of us on the team has our own journey but we support each other in our competitions. Dressage is horse ballet, an art we all aim to master and help each other succeed.
Representation Matters!
