About Maxine

For the past decade, she has become an expert at restoring her life. She has always ridden horses, but a traumatic brain injury in 2009 forced her to reevaluate and redefine her life as she learned to accept her new limitations.

These include certificates in animal behavior; Bsc Psychology, Physiology and Genetics; and a BTech Medical Orthotics and Prosthetics.
