Victoria Belliard

Owner / Manager

Victoria Belliard (29) was born in Sunset Vally to two wonderful parents. Her father was a big time surgeon and her mother was a writer. Tori had always dreamed of being a CEO of her own company. So when the opertunity came up for her to fly out to Bridgeport for an intership at a big time bank, she jumped at the chance. Maybe it wasn't exactly what she was thinking of, but it was her first break.

After the birth of her daughter Tori realized that bridgeport was no place for a single mother to raise a child. So she packed up what little she had, got a small loan, and moved out to a small farm on the edge of Riverview.

Tori was very familier with horses as she grew up with them on her aunt's ranch in Appaloosa Plains. As soon as she told her aunt about her plan to renovate this old farm, the little old woman jumped at the chance to help Tori get things rolling. So with the help of family and a few friends Tori is on her way to living the dream life.

Erik Jinkins

Eventing Rider

Erik (23) didn't get into horses until later in life. He got on his first horse when he was 18. It was shortly after that first ride that Erik discovered he had a talent and a passion for event riding. He traveled across the country looking for different horses to ride and people to work for. That was until he found his home here at Libertas. Erik is now our main Event rider and he says he is "loving every second of it!"

JT (26) moved to Libertas from Alberta, Canada. He brings with him a vast knowlage of all things western. He specilizes in Spanish Barb horses. JT grew up on a ranch in Alberta with his mother and father. There he learned how to ride as well as tend to cattle. After traveling the rodeo circuit for about 7 years he decided he needed some down time and a stable job.
