I am studying biology on the pre-veterinary track at the University of Michigan and I have years of animal handling experience.

I have been riding horses for nearly a decade, starting in 2014. I took lessons and learned horsemanship for many years before becoming a working student and horsemanship camp counselor between 2017-2019 at the barn I grew up riding at. I then took lessons and helped with turnout, night check, etc. a different barn from 2020-2021. During that time, I was also an animal science department counselor at a local farm where I was responsible for tens of animals (including horses). Most recently, for 8 months in 2024, I worked for a local barn doing turnout, night check, and basic horsemanship while maintaining the property.

From my years working as a counselor, student, working-student and volunteer, I have hours of experience working in barns. I have the capabilities to efficiently feed, water, and turn out horses while keeping a tidy barn.

I have ridden many different kinds of horses in different disciplines. I started eventing when I first got into riding, and since then I have competed in jumper shows, hunts, IEA shows and trained both flat and jump work.

I have competed, groomed, and help run shows at my home barns throughout the years. I have countless hours of experience in the horse show environment.
