Bio
Having a place to stay will definitely be helpful. In addition, I am more than ok if the pay is modest. However, bringing my own horse and getting training as part of my compensation would be the ideal scenario for me.Qualifications
I took the following relevant courses at the University of Findlay: Equine Preventative Medicine, Equine Nutrition, Farm and Stable Management, Introduction to Equine Science.
In addition in 2019, I attended horseshoeing school in Kentucky.
Duties of Current Occupation
Grooming, clipping, riding, lungeing, trailering horses, feeding, treating small cuts and injuries, turning out horses. Schooling young horses and jumping up to 3'6".
Equine Work Experience
I grew up show jumping from when I was 9 years old until I was 17 years old. I jumped up to 1.20 meters. Several years later I returned to the horse world as a horse owner and breeder when my mare Sarah, sired by Brandenburg Windstar, foaled my horse Promise Windstar. I owned and schooled Promise for 5 years.
After my time in the Army I attended the University of Findlay Equestrian Program and in the Summer of 2017 I was a riding instructor for the Culver Military Academy Summer School. Giving lessons to intermediate and beginner level riders.
In 2019 I attended the Kentucky Horseshoeing School while working on a large thoroughbred Farm in Lexington, Kentucky.
I constantly attend clinics or take lessons when possible to continue to further my knowledge and skills.
Specialities
Foaling, Starting young horses, ground work, schooling 3 day event horses. I also have a Commercial Drivers license Class A with tanker endorsement. In addition to being a heavy equipment operator.
