Magnolia Hill Dressage
Our Staff
The staff at Magnolia Hill is a close-knit team built on hard work, quiet dedication, and a shared respect for the horses. From early mornings to late evenings, each person plays a role in keeping the barn running smoothly. They support one another through long days, small setbacks, and steady progress — forming the backbone of daily life at Magnolia Hill.

Donovan Jones
Donovan is a trusted member of the Magnolia Hill team, known for his calm demeanor and thoughtful approach to horses. He takes pride in the daily routines, pays close attention to each horse’s needs, and brings a steady, reassuring presence to the barn — especially on long or demanding days.

Riley Wood
Riley is a working student who’s still finding her rhythm but gives everything she has to the barn. She’s up early, quick to help, and never afraid of hard work — even on the long days. Eager to learn and always watching, Riley takes every ride, mistake, and small success as part of the process, growing more confident with each step.

Henry Smitherson
Fiery, passionate, and never boring, Henry brings big energy and high standars to Magnolia Hill. A true hot head with a sharp eye, he thrives on expressive horses, honest work, and a bit of healthy drama, because the show life should never be dull.
