About the Owner

Erin grew up in eastern Massachusetts and has been passionate about horses for over thirty years. She graduated with a bachelor’s degree in science from Roger Williams University where she was a member of the Varsity Equestrian Team for 3 years. In her junior year, she met Dan and after graduation in ’07 she moved to Connecticut to be with him and they were married in September 2010. Since graduation and before opening Silver Lining Stables, she worked as a manager at Enterprise Rent a Car, assistant manager at TFS Limited, and as a riding instructor in Southport, CT.

Throughout high school and college, Erin worked cleaning stalls, teaching lessons, and managing farms in Massachusetts and Rhode Island. At 13, Erin started leasing a horse and began to really understand the time and energy it took to care for horses. Erin bought her first, and current horse, Sprite at 17 and was lucky enough to keep her in the backyard of her mother’s home. Sprite traveled with Erin to college and back and at most farms that Sprite was boarded at there was always ONE thing Erin wished she could have done a LITTLE bit differently.

These experiences became the basis for Erin’s dream of Silver Lining Stables. A custom plan for every horse. More work… Maybe. But the peace of mind of having your every wish come true for the care of your horse is well worth the extra work.

Since opening Silver Lining Stables- Erin, Sprite and Sprite’s son Scandal have trained with Lendon Gray, Mica Mabregana, and Bobbi Carleton. Successfully training and showing both horses through 3rd Level and receiving the USDF Bronze Medal.
