"It is an honor to serve on the Board of Trustees and contribute to the important efforts of the AHC,” said Tauber. “The USEF has long supported the AHC in their mission to represent the interests of all segments of the industry in Washington, D.C. I look forward to working closely together to protect and expand equestrian sport in America."

Tauber previously served as secretary for the USEF, and has also been a member of the Planning, Licensed Officials and Hearing Committees. She was a founding officer and vice president of the U. S.
