Meet The Team
Merritt Corey
Owner and Trainer at RHEC. Merritt has had a passion for horses beginning at a very young age. This passion grew into owning and taking care of her own horses at 12 years old to showing competitively every other weekend on the local circuits, then earning a Bachelor's degree in Animal & Veterinary Sciences with a concentration of Equine Business at Clemson University. Over the years she also spent summers riding in Florida. Combining her education with years of equine riding and training experience, Merritt believes in giving her students a strong foundation to set her students up for success!
