Equine Work Experience

I am a 25-year-old equestrian professional with over 17 years of experience working with and riding horses. My deep passion for horses has naturally led me to pursue a career in the equine industry.

I have hands-on experience in yard management, coaching, and the schooling of a wide variety of horses and ponies. I am confident in handling horses of all types and temperaments, and I also have extensive experience with lunging, working with both client horses and my own. Additionally, I have competed in numerous small training shows with my mare and others' horses, gaining valuable experience in both competition and preparation.

I am now looking for the opportunity to take my skills and knowledge overseas, and I would love the chance to be part of a dedicated and professional yard. I’m a hardworking, team-oriented individual who brings structure, care, and enthusiasm to every role.

I look forward to the possibility of working alongside you.

Type of Ride Work

I have gained valuable experience as a work rider across multiple disciplines, including dressage, show jumping, and cross country. I have worked with a wide range of horses at various levels, adapting to their individual needs and temperaments. In my work rides, I have show jumped up to 1.20m and competed in cross country up to 80cm. My dressage riding experience ranges from novice to elementary level.

Additionally, I owned and produced my own quirky Thoroughbred mare for six years.
