About Kristi Seymour, LPC, MBA

Very nice photo of Kristi
For as long as I can remember, horses have been my passion. I’ve been riding since 1975, starting with Pony Club before moving on to compete in a variety of Hunter/Jumper divisions. Over the years, I’ve trained with top barns and professionals, including several members of the United States Equestrian Team, and competed in show jumping up to 1.45m at major “A” shows.
Today, I still enjoy competing in show jumping and I have embraced new challenges by training and showing in lower levels of dressage. These experiences — spanning nearly five decades — have taught me countless lessons about dedication, discipline, and building a true partnership with your horse.
♞ About Me
A Unique Blend of Skills
What sets me apart is the combination of my equestrian experience, business acumen, and background in mental health. In addition to riding and competing, I’ve managed a thriving equestrian facility with over 75 horses and 500 clients, overseeing operations, client relationships, and training programs.
This hands-on experience has given me a deep understanding of the unique challenges and goals riders and barns face every day.
