Molly started riding at a young age with her mom in Castle Rock, WA. When she was 14, she became the owner of Donnerspiel, a 4 year old Oldenburg gelding, and began the journey developing and training a horse from scratch through Grand Prix. Along the way, Molly qualified and attended NAJYRC (now NAYC) in the FEI Juniors in 2011, and as a Young Rider in 2013 with "Ruger", where she helped earn Region 6 team silver, and individually placed in the top 15.

In 2015, Molly graduated from University of Washington - Bothell, with a degree in Business, Marketing and Management. She decided to pursue training horses full time in 2017, and began working with Brooke Voldbaek as an assistant trainer. After several years working together, Molly decided to start her own business- MK Equestrian - in 2021. Molly is currently based out of High Valley Stables, in Newberg, OR.

Molly takes the opportunity to continue her riding education whenever possible, most recently under Christine Traurig, David Blake, Rebecca Rigdon, Lilo Fore, and Anne Gribbons.
