5'4 and 110 pounds - Stella is is thin and lithe, and is often labeled as "waifish." Her skin is pale and remains so no matter how long she remains in the sun. Long and curly tresses tumble down to her lower back but she keeps it tied up and out of the way most of the time. Her natural color is a dark, almost black, brown, but it has lightened over the years. Occasionally, she dyes it a dark auburn if the mood suits her and her eyes are hazel.

MENTAL;;Personality:
Never one to question the unexpected, Stella likes to live life spontaneously. Creative and witty, painting and writing are her personal therapists. She is stubborn at times (well, most of the time) and likes things done her way, though will yield if your logic beats hers. Extremely free-spirited, she doesn't like to be tied down, especially not to any one person, which is probably why she's usually single. Her best friends are her horses and she wouldn't have it any other way.

PAST;;History:
Originally born in London, England, Stella and her family moved to the states in her teenage years, a few years after the birth of her younger sister, Porscha. Always one to enjoy the outdoors, she had first acquired her love of riding while watching her father work, but had never truly pursued it until she began living in Kentucky. A dramatic contrast to the grey tones of London, the green fields and forests offered territory never before explored and best seen on the back of a horse. At 15 she received her first horse, a yearling TB filly named Cherry who, due to complications, was deemed unfit for the racing industry. Stella raised and trained her with the help of her father and began competing in Western events at 18 with her. Never satisfied, however, Stella also began training in several English disciplines to widen her abilities. At 20 she began interning at her father's job, and soon after, she also purchased Fuego, a regrettable but irreversible decision. It was while riding Fuego that her father got into the accident which left him in a coma prior to his death. His passing deeply shook Stella as the two had been very close, closer than even she and her mother, and for quite some time she gave up riding all together, contemplating whether or not to keep her horses or continue in her Father's footsteps. Two years later, she was still working at Denali Stud, now in her Father's position. A friend of the family's contacted her around this time about Midnight, a two year old colt destined for her father's hands but now without an owner. In love with the Friesian at first sight, Stella accepted him immediately and he proved to be her most sweet and talented horse as of yet. With three horses now, she couldn't afford to live and board in Kentucky anymore and moved to Virginia for the cooler weather and easier living. Hearing of several openings in a new, start up farm that offered room and board, she jumped on the offer and has been here ever since.

Horse's Show Name: Midnight Reflection
Horse's Barn Name: Midnight or Night
Barn: Stallion Barn
Breed: Friesian
Gender: stallion
Age: 5
Height: 16 HH
Coat Color: black
Eye Color: brown
Markings or Brands: none
Discipline(s): Dressage
Personality: Anyone who met Midnight would never guessed he was a five year old stallion. He has the temper of a gelding and is the sweetest thing on four legs around. He loves sweets and carrots and is always eager to please Stella, though is hesitant with other riders. Preforming is his forte and he can stand not showing off if ever around crowds of people. This is a two-edged sword when it comes to showing but Stella know him well enough to reap its benefits in the ring. If he's not showing off or eating though, he's sleeping. He enjoys sleep as much as any other teenager, it seems, though sometimes other horses will take advantage of him because of it.
History: Originally bred as a gift to Stella's father, Midnight ended up in Stella's possession after her father's death.

Horse's Show Name: Firestarter's Revenge
Horse's Barn Name: Fuego
Barn: Main Barn
Breed: Lipizzaner
Gender: mare
Age: 9
Height: 15.1 HH
Coat Color: white
Eye Color: blue and brown
Markings or Brands: grey dapples
Discipline(s): Jumping, Cross Country
Personality: You would have thought that Fuego was a hotheaded stallion for all the attitude she gives off.
History: Due to her rotten personality, Fuego was unwanted since birth and was up for final auction before the slaughterhouse when Stella rescued her. Though she thought Fuego a challenging new addition for her to tame, her father hated her at first sight and a few months into her training, attempted to ride her himself with tragic results. Fuego ran him straight into a low hanging overpass that cracked his skull and left him in a coma until his death. Since then, Stella had debated selling her, but decided she wanted to tame Fuego herself - focusing on jumping and cross-country to channel her excess energy and attitude.

Horse's Show Name: Cherry Bomb
Horse's Barn Name: Cherry
Barn: Broodmare Barn
Breed: Thoroughbred
Gender: mare
Age: 13
Height: 15.4 HH
Coat Color: bay
Eye Color: brown
Markings or Brands: white star and hind right sock
Discipline(s): Reining, Barrel Racing
Personality: A typical horse, Cherry is in no way on either side of the extremes when it comes to personality. She is calm and reliable, enjoys attention, and loves to get dirty. Oats are her weakness and more than once she has devoured feed room supplies. She loves to run though, and though she's getting older now, once in a while she'll still race the trucks down the fence line just to show them who's boss.
History: Cherry Bomb was a rejected racer, turned away due to weak lungs and a hairline fracture found in her left front at an early age. She was given to Stella's father at Denali to do with as he pleased and he purchased her for Stella when she was 15. Cherry was raised and trained by the pair, and loved to run. She was taught several western disciplines, but Reigning and Barrels were her best categories and were the ones most focused on by Stella. Now 13, she is mainly a trail ride horse, though is often used for lessons, especially with new riders.
