Teddi Mellencamp Arroyave

Teddi MellencampTeddi was raised in Hilton Head Island, SC. Starting at the age of 7, she was spending most of her time traveling to horse shows with Don Stewart Stables. She quickly rose to many national championships, starting with the ponies and ultimately with the horses at shows such as Devon, Capital Challenge, Harrisburg, Washington and New York. She also qualified for all of the major equitation finals multiple times.

During her junior career she rode with Don Stewart, Scott Hofstetter, Kelley Farmer, Missy Clark and Jack Towell. After winning the stakes class at Madison Square Garden (garnered her last junior year), Teddi moved to Los Angeles to pursue a position in the entertainment industry. She has been working for Brookway since 2006. In 2009 she has been champion and/or reserve at every WCHR show on the West coast which include: Thermal, Del Mar National, Blenheim Equisports, Showpark and Menlo Charity Horse show.
