Miscellaneous
A lifelong horse lover, Amy Daum began her career in the horse industry more than two decades ago after first earning a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Writing from the University of Pittsburgh, and then a Bachelor of Science degree in Equine Business Management from Johnson & Wales University. After working in equine insurance for five years, both in underwriting and in retail sales, she then joined the U.S. Eventing Association where for seven years her roles included Director of Communications, editor of Eventing USA (the USEA’s national bi-monthly magazine), and Project Manager of the USEA’s American Eventing Championships. In 2008 she switched gears back to the insurance industry as the CEO and Managing Partner of Broadstone Equine Insurance Agency, and in 2019 Broadstone became a division of Marshall & Sterling Insurance, one of the nation’s top 25 privately-owned insurance agencies. Amy’s riding background spans across disciplines, from Western Pleasure and Hunter/Jumpers as a teenager, and Eventing and Dressage as an adult. Horses and horsepeople are her passion, and she considers herself blessed to have a career that allows her to combine that passion with a mind for business. When she’s not working to help horse owners find the best insurance plans to protect their horses, she’s on the dance floor as a ballroom and Latin dancer, or at home refereeing skirmishes between her cat Roo, and Ella, her recent German Shepherd rescue.
