My roots trace back to a small backyard farm tucked into the rolling hills of Northern California. My days were filled with feeding chickens, moving hay bales, and helping my grandpa on his ranch. It wasn’t just hard work — it was an education in grit, patience, and a deep respect for animals.

If you’ve ever seen Grant work with horses, you know it’s not just training — it’s a conversation. At Diamond Cross Ranch, Grant uses timeless principles of horsemanship to teach people how to lead with empathy, patience, and presence. Watching him train horses was powerful. But what struck me even more was how those same techniques apply to people.
