Equine Work Experience
I have been working at eventing barns for the past few years, however I would really like to get into endurance and long distance trail riding. I also have experience with mounted archery which I would like to pursue further.
Specialities
I have been managing a busy eventing barn of around 20 horses for the past six years. I enjoy working with clients and boarders as much as I enjoy working with their horses. I also have many years of administrative experience from other fields, so I particularly excel at getting barn records organized and accessible.
