Fulfilling a passion of supporting the horse industry and sharing that passion with others, Megan Arszman has joined the team at the American Horse Council (AHC) and the AHC Foundation as their Marketing and Communications Specialist.

An accomplished creative professional with a proven track record in feature and copywriting, event coverage, social media management, marketing and promotions, Arszman is looking forward to sharing this wealth of knowledge, experience and skills with the members of the AHC staff and board.

“I am pleased to announce the addition of Megan to the AHC team,” says Julie Broadway, President of the AHC.

Arszman’s extensive experience in the horse industry spreads beyond the 18 years she’s been a professional to her life growing up with horses and competing in a variety of events and organizations. As the former Communications Coordinator with the Indiana Horse Racing Commission, she saw, firsthand, the importance of the everyday horse owner and lover’s role to keep the horse industry from being stagnant and to grow outside of the smaller boundaries the industry has found itself in. Because of this, she’s looking forward to helping on a much larger scale, working with the dedicated members of the AHC staff and board.

“My passion is in the horse industry, and to work with other like-minded people who are driven to increase awareness and work to preserve and strengthen America’s horse industry has added a spark to my career,” says Arszman. “I’m sincerely grateful for this opportunity and am looking forward to working alongside Julie and the rest of the staff.”

Arszman will continue to offer her freelance writing and marketing services through her independent communications company, MA Media. Since 2012, she has been working with businesses, horsemen’s associations and farms to develop media and marketing plans and aspires to continuing to assist in their endeavors.
