I do not have any college qualifications although I spent a few years studying Criminology and Criminal Justice in Australia. Although it did not work for me as I am a practical individual who enjoys hard work and long hours in the field over studying for hours a day.

I’m an expirenced rider having ridden horses since I was 5years old. I have competed in show jumping, dressage, eventing, equitation and showing.

I have worked as a stable hand and played polo. I have experience in young horses, schooling, polo training and ground work.

I have worked as Veterinary assistant in the equine unit caring for Critical care patients, dummy foals, assisted in operation preparation and night shift duties.

I have worked with foals, assisted in foaling, assessing and caring for sick and lame horses.

I can train and ride polo ponies, show jumpers and dressage horses.

I can muck out, groom, exercise horses and keep a yard neat as well as keeping tack in good condition.

I work well with a team and I am confident to work solo.

I’ve ridden green horses, and worked young horses. Not afraid of problem horses.

I have ridden showing, show jumping, dressage and polo ponies as well as Australian stock horses.

I have experience in flatwork, exercising and lunging horses as well as working with youngsters.

I have competed in showjumping at 1.2m. Dressage at open level, eventing at 1m, working hunter and equitation. I represented my province, Western Cape, at the South African Pony Riders Championships between 2013-2014 coming top three in the country across those 5 disciplines.
