Jennifer Diamond
A dressage legacy bringing over 35 years of experience in both the United States and Europe, Jennifer Diamond was brought along in dressage to value quiet expertise, a calm and fair hand, and a love for challenge. A student of mother and dressage professional Colleen Diamond, German master Peter Borggreve, and 22-year protege of Grant Schneidman, Jennifer is a European licensed Grand Prix-level trainer who returned to the United States in 2018 after spending a decade in Northern Europe after proving her skill in both dressage and facility management at the highest levels.
Jennifer is available for full and partial training at Aurum.

Jenny Bauer
An award-winning young horse trainer hailing from Sweden, Jenny completed formal training and education at the highly selective Strömsholm in Sweden. A specialist in young horses and import sales, Jenny brings with her a true classical training approach, a proven sale record and incredible eye for talent. In addition to offering training and sales with Noble Dressage, we look forward to standing behind Jenny in importing talented dressage partners directly from the breeders to Aurum for a personal sales experience in a friendly and comfortable environment without the costly process of importing.

Nicola Genaud
Nicola manages our facility and horse riding school. She has been riding for nearly 40 years in the hunters, jumpers and equitation divisions around the country and is still an active equestrian competitor and rider.
