Dr. Kim Allshouse is originally from Dagus Mines, Pennsylvania. She grew up riding and competing locally before deciding to move to Rhode Island to attend Johnson and Wales University. She then built a career caring for and training horses in barns in the United States and Germany.

In her free time, she and her partner, Matt, enjoy hiking, scuba diving, traveling, and generally exploring New England.
