Christine Hayden

Equine Insurance Practice Leader

Christine is originally from Illinois, where she obtained her Bachelor’s Degree in Animal Science at Southern Illinois University-Carbondale, with a focus on the horse industry.  After graduation, she managed her own business retraining off-track Thoroughbreds as foxhunting and competition mounts.  A decade later, she found herself drawn to Kentucky with an opportunity to manage a private sport horse farm.  After a few years and a desire for a career with climate control, Christine spent time employed as a veterinary technician, and then a licensed claims adjuster for both pet and equine insurance.  After ten years as an adjuster, she moved over to the agent side of equine insurance and has been with Sterling Thompson Equine since 2017. 

In her free time, Christine is an avid nature, equine and canine photographer.  She and her husband enjoy traveling, always with camera equipment in tow.  When not on the road, they enjoy time with their two “fur-ever kittens” Conway Kitty and Dolly Purton.
