Sean Keller, Equine Therapy Instructor

My name is Sean Keller and I was born and raised in Colorado. I spent my youth hunting, fishing, and camping in the wilderness. That is where I found my love for horses. At 18, I left home for the United States Marine Corps Infantry where I deployed overseas for two combat deployments. After the Marines, I trained horses and attended college where I obtained my Master’s Degree. I became a Police Officer and served for 14 years. I’ve been married to my beloved wife Jordan for 17 years, I have 3 lovely children and I am now the Equine Manager for the 9th largest ranch in Montana.
