I’ve been riding since I was 4 and always loved being around animals. Competing in eventing, dressage and show jumping, during my years of riding my experience varies from home run riding schools in Ireland and Scotland to top class racing yard. Also, after I finished pony club, I went on to teach younger children ranging from 5 – 17 years old for pony club, flat work, lunging and eventing. I’m an energetic and friendly person that’s always up for a challenge new experiences. I have been volunteering and doing work experience for years, including treetops stables Ltd and highland riding centre.I’ve had a little while away from riding due to working in hospitality and in dance while studying and teaching which has given my more experience on the customer service, teaching all ages and adapting to new teams and fast paced environments. The reason I wish to return to the equine industry is because I’m looking for a new challenge as well as being around my four legged friends again!
