Qualifications
Finishing my AA, planning on majoring in Occupational Therapy with a focus of Hippothearapy (Equine therapy).
Duties of Current Occupation
Showing western, English, and Icelandic horse riding. I’ve ridden various breeds, gained and non-gained. Working as a stable hand, groom, horse exerciser and teaching beginners how to ride.
Equine Work Experience
I have been in the equestrian industry all my life, 3rd generation. My dad is a farrier and we bring in 1-2 client horses at a time to train at our barn. I also work for Virginia Lauridsen with Icelandic horses, showing and teaching others, both little kids and adults.
Specialities
I’ve worked with Stallions, foals, mares, geldings, younge horses and d horses.
Type of Ride Work
I have ridden green horses, OTTBs, quarter horses, gauged horses, ponies. I’ve done jumping, dressage, eq, western ranch riding, and trail riding as well as had 8+ years experience in the show world.
Competition Details
I have been competing for over 8 years. I’ve shown in many different show environments. I was part of a YEDA and IEA team for years, which if you know is a team that rides together once a week at their home barn and then travels to a host barn which provides horses for the riders. The horses provided are warmed up and then randomly assigned to the riders without any warm-up time the riders go straight into the show arena to get judged. I’ve shown English and Western also have been a groom.
