Born in 1989 in Louisville, Kentucky, Lauren grew up surrounded by horses as the daughter of a successful trainer and upper level competitor, Martha Lambert. She began riding at the age of three, and competed in Pony Club Rally at four. At the age of 8, Lauren began showing in USEA recognized events, successfully reaching the CCI4* level in 2008 at the age of 19 with her OTTB, Baba Creek.
​
Lauren has worked for and ridden with some of the nation’s top riders including David O’Connor, and has trained extensively with Jimmy Wofford since age eleven. She spent twelve years under the instruction of German Classical Dressage trainer, Alex Gerding, who taught her explicitly how to sympathetically and systematically train even the most difficult horses. Developing under world-class instructors, along with growing up in the business watching her mother operate, Lauren has the experience, confidence, and inherent skills for communicating, coaching, and helping horses and riders reach their goals.
