Taylor West, Direct Service/ Ranch Manager

---

Don’t mess with Taylor! This woman has ridden her share of broncs—the bucking kind. Taylor is all things ranching and horsemanship. Born in Dillon, Montana, she moved to the Bitterroot Valley at a young age and has proudly called it home ever since.

Taylor graduated high school at just 16 years old and has been training horses since then. Taking a raw, unbroken bronc and transforming it into a gentle, dependable trail horse comes naturally to her. She spends most of her time in the saddle, whether she’s training horses, riding broncs, or working with the horses on the ranch.

Her greatest passion is helping people overcome their fear of horses while teaching them to recognize the incredible connection between horse and human. Taylor believes horses have a unique way of building confidence, trust, and healing.

She is currently working toward her certification in equine therapy, combining her lifelong passion for horses with a desire to help others experience the powerful impact they can have. Whether she’s in the arena, on the ranch, or mentoring someone through their first experience with a horse, Taylor brings authenticity, patience, and a lifetime of horsemanship to everything she does.
