Every member of our team — human and horse alike — brings something meaningful to this work

Karl Vochatzer
Land Steward & Behind-the-Scenes Essential

Karl is an important part of what makes Mustang Magic possible. While much of his work happens behind the scenes, his care for the land and the place we call home helps create the welcoming, peaceful environment at the heart of Mustang Magic. Karl holds a master's degree in Cognitive Psychology and spent much of his career as a usability specialist. After retiring, he returned to school to pursue a second career in archaeology, which he continues to work full time. When he's not working at his regular job, you'll often find him tending the land, taking care of maintenance, and helping keep everything running smoothly at Mustang Magic. His steady presence and dedication make him an invaluable part of our team.

Brianna Harris
Administrative Assistant

Brianna Harris is the administrative heart behind Mustang Magic. With almost a decade of experience in patient advocacy and healthcare administration, she helps keep the many behind-the-scenes details of a mental health practice organized and running smoothly, so the focus can remain where it belongs — on the people Mustang Magic serves. Brianna grew up in Central Oregon, and outside of work, she loves traveling with her amazing husband, painting and trying anything crafty, and tending to her ever-growing collection of houseplants with her trusty cat, Delia, nearby. Whether she is organizing a schedule, helping keep things running behind the scenes, or tending to her jungle of houseplants, Brianna believes that a little extra care can make all the difference. She is grateful to be part of Mustang Magic and to help create a welcoming and supportive experience from the moment someone reaches out.

Zenodie Arlas
Equine Specialist

Zenodie Arlas is a devoted horsewoman and equine coach whose work is grounded in a deep respect for horses and a desire to understand the world from their perspective. Born in California, Zenodie spent 22 years living in Paris, France, followed by four years surrounded by the natural beauty of Hawaiʻi’s Big Island, before finding her way to the wide-open landscapes of Central Oregon. Her journey reflects a lifelong appreciation for the natural world and the meaningful relationships we build with the animals who share it. Drawing on equine science, including the study of horse behavior, anatomy, and biology, Zenodie is committed to helping people develop a deeper understanding of horses through compassionate, ethical, and thoughtful horsemanship. She believes that when we take the time to listen, observe, and honor a horse’s individual needs, we create the conditions for trust, mutual understanding, and a more meaningful partnership. At the heart of Zenodie’s work is a simple but powerful vision: a place where horses feel understood, respected, and safe to be themselves, and where the people who spend time with them can experience the same sense of ease and acceptance. She hopes to inspire a more thoughtful approach to horsemanship—one that values the horse’s perspective and allows both horse and human to feel safe, connected, and understood. Through her work, Zenodie brings a thoughtful and compassionate perspective to the Mustang Magic community, sharing her knowledge and experience in support of the well-being of horses and the relationships that make this work so meaningful. https://www.zenodie.com/
