Bitten by the horse bug at 5 years old, Chris Ewanouski started out riding at a local farm. Moving to Grazing Fields in high school, he became a working student for Kathy Fletcher and through dedication and perseverance made history at the 2005 New England Equitation Finals by not only winning the overall final, but the Horsemanship portion as well. His junior career was rounded out with an 11th place finish at the 2005 WIHS Finals and a top 25 finish at the ASPA Maclay Championship in the same year.
After learning from top professionals like Candice King and Geoff Teall, Chris worked with Federico Stryzle at Ñapinday for thirteen years before starting Hatherly LLC in 2023.
