Equine Work Experience
I have owned and ridden horses since I was 10 years old, and have cared for 4 horses at home for the last 7 years. I started eventing lightly as a teenager before finding a passion for dressage. I have ridden my own horse up to medium level and have experience riding various horse types, especially during my time in Botswana. I train frequently with top coaches in my region, and am very committed to continuing my development of skills included in grooming and riding at a high standard. I hold my Pony Club B Test (level 2 diploma in horse care, management and riding), was a part of the Youth Home Nations BD team (2024), and am a Trainee judge (2023-present). I am a dedicated, determined perfectionist when it comes to horses and would be a hardworking and passionate addition to your yard. It has been noted that I maintain a positive and optimistic attitude, helping to support and lift up a team.
Specialities
I have been happy working both within a team and on my own. I have skills to clip, plait and turn out, as I currently do for my own horses and shows. I lunge and long line regularly, holding my pony club lunge test. I am a confident, correct rider and am happy to both jump and school on the flat. I have worked with colts and young horses in the past. As part of my job in 2021 I handled newborns to 4 y/o and helped with lunging as one was backed, and in Botswana I handled and rode a young colt
