Worked with a variety of horses ranging from foals (both fillies and colts), high performance horse (racing horses and top level eventers - Megan Jones) and pleasure horses (offering training to both horse and rider). I work to high standards and my organisation, routine/time management are always completed with efficiency. Setting personal goals to complete individual tasks, I find keeps me performing at my best. I have a calming, tolerant and patient manner with both people and animals.

Personally I have started my own horse and have also helped a couple of people with their horses.
