Equine Work Experience

I have been fortunate to build a career around both horses and people, with experience spanning riding instruction, working riding, trail guiding, and yearling, sales, and auction preparation. I enjoy the variety that comes with the equine industry and have worked with a wide range of horses, riders, and clients throughout my career. I am passionate about good horsemanship, horse welfare, and creating positive experiences for both horses and people. Whether working independently, managing a team, preparing horses for sales, teaching riders, or guiding clients on the trail, I bring a positive attitude, strong work ethic, and willingness to adapt to whatever is required. My background in management, hospitality, and client relations has also given me excellent communication and organisational skills, allowing me to contribute beyond the yard when needed. I am always eager to learn, travel, and take on new opportunities that allow me to continue growing both personally and professionally.
