19 year-old Reed Kessler has announced two new major sponsorships this month. The 2012 Olympic athlete has joined the Samshield family this year as an official representative for the international helmet company. The 2012 US Olympian joins fellow Samshield riders such as Eric Lamaze, Kevin Staut, Roger Yves-Bost, Kent Farrington, Olivier & Ludo Philippaerts, McLain Ward, Daniel Deusser and Janne Friederike-Meyer. In addition to this exciting sponsorship with Samshield, the history-making rider from the 2012 Olympic Games announces this week a sponsorship partnership with Kingsland Equestrian as well. Reed, who started training with Germany’s Marcus Ehning late last year, travels between the United States and Germany to train with her now fellow Kingsland team rider, Ehning.
