Owners

Marimar Torres

Marimar Torres owns the barn as well as Flaneur and Akrobat. Kristen met Marimar while training at Fairwind Farm owned by Sue Curry Shaffer. Marimar asked Kristen to sell Nobby, a horse who was spooky and difficult to ride. This relationship led to Kristen’s relocation to Marimar Estate Stables in 2006. Marimar’s generous support as a sponsor and client has been instrumental in the success of Kristen’s career. The two meet often to discuss horses, the barn, plans for the future, and each other’s well-being. Marimar is more than a sponsor, she is family.

Pam Mahle

Pam owns the wonderful Celano. They met when Kristen began training at Marimar Estate Stables. Pam worked for Kristen for two years, during which time she purchased Nobby from Marimar. Eventually, Nobby retired and together Pam and Kristen found Celano. Pam and her husband Pax own Pax Wines as well as Agharta and Windgap wines. Pam enjoys seeing Celano show and clinic. She is a fantastic support at the shows and always brings excellent wines!

Pauline Muntzer

Pauline is Floriana’s owner and has known Kristen for many years. Flori is the second horse that Pauline has had in training with Kristen. Over the years Pauline has taken time off work to go to the shows with Kristen every year, grooming and helping out. She is one of Kristen’s dearest friends.

Victoria Andrews

Victoria is the owner of Arturo, an incredibly talented and fancy 2002 PRE schooling Prix St. Georges. She has been working with Kristen since 2008, lives in Occidental, works hard, and is always trying to further her education. Kristen looks forward to campaigning Arturo in 2015.
