Matador Farm, LLC

Jessica M. Filiatrault is the owner and head trainer of Matador Farm. Just prior to opening Matador Farm, Jessica spent two years as head trainer at Sunset Cliff Farms in Burnet, TX where many of her students earned top rewards at the "AA" level. Before that, she spent her 2011 show season working and riding for Anne Kursinski at Market Street Farm in Frenchtown, NJ. Her time there was spent refining her teaching and training skills so that she may better prepare her students and horses for the top levels of competition. She comes to Michigan very excited to share this valuable knowledge with her students.


Jessica has had a very well-rounded experience in her work with horses. Her early career was spent here in Michigan where she worked as an assistant to Tim Wright at Waverly Farm. While there, she piloted many hunters and jumpers to numerous year-end awards and championships from Pre-Green to Open Jumper. She had the pleasure to receive instruction from renowned trainers such as Polly Howard, Wendy Murdock, and Tim Grubb.
