Meet Our Team
Dr. Tammye Markle, the Founder of Trinity Reins Ranch & Ministries, is an ordained pastor and has a Doctorate degree in Biblical Studies and a Master’s degree in Christian Counseling. Tammye is a 'John Maxwell' Certified Coach, Leadership Trainer, and Speaker and the former Chairman of the Miss Texas Pageant Inc. and Scholarship Foundation where she provided mentorship and leadership development for young women. In addition, she has been working with adults coping with various types of trauma as well as conducting equine assisted learning and mentoring for several years.
Growing up on a small ranch in Texas, Tammye has been influenced by horse and herd behavior her entire life.
She founded Trinity Reins Ministries when she felt that God was calling her to use her experience with horses, leadership and life challenges to assist and influence others to receive healing and freedom that can only be found in the Word of God. After a long term illness, Tammye has shifted her focus away from facilitating programs on her own ranch to raising money to help those needing equine program services to fund them through other ranches with the same types of programs through scholarship assistance.
