I'm currently studying Applied Animal Science at Harper Adams University and have several years of hands-on experience working with horses. I have sole charge experience on a private yard caring for 3–4 horses, as well as working on a full livery yard as part of a team. My daily responsibilities include mucking out, feeding, haynets, turnout, lungeing, schooling, and maintaining high yard standards. I also volunteered for two years at Leopold's Equestrian, helping prepare horses and other animals for county shows and performances. While living in Dubai, I competed in FEI national dressage and helped at one-day events and showjumping competitions. I'm keen to continue learning, work hard, and become part of a professional yard.

I have worked with an animal production yard, preparing and showing a range of horses and minis in displays at local and county shows across england. The horses have their own individual performance routines which is crafted and practiced throughout the winter and spring in which a high level of turnout would be matched when they’d be taken out to shows.

I have produced my own horse from endurance to dressage, having taken him to national shows in the uae always placing top 5 and 3rd in the 2025 uae dressage championships in abu dhabi. I have competed others horses in both showjumping and cross country.

Competed up to novice in UAE FEI national dressage as a junior, consistently placing top 5.
