Interview with Elaine
Previously, That’s Farming editor, Catherina Cunnane, interviewed Elaine Heney of Grey Pony Films.
She told us:
“My parents are both equestrians, and grandfather, James Heney, started and showed young horses, and his philosophy was that you should be able to ride a horse with a silk thread. My great-great-grandfather also had horses.
I fell in love with horses at a very young age when I started to ride. My first pony was an energy-efficient Shetland.
I had some tech skills from my university courses and working in the tech industry in Dublin, so I was able to combine both my tech and horse knowledge to create an online equestrian business.
I am an award-winning movie director, #1 best-selling equestrian author and an equestrian app publisher.
Also, I have a masters in music and media, the Pony Club B test and an HSI coaching cert.
Since I left university, I have continued to learn every day, both with horses and advancing my online skills – whether it is using my tech skills to set up an online bookstore on Shopify or attending international equestrian events.”
