I have not completed any equine related college courses.

I have worked at a barn assisting lessons, teaching lessons, and working the summer camp program. I have also groomed at horse shows on occasion. I have been doing this from ages 14-19.

I have experience teaching beginner riders and grooming/washing horses, lunging, wrapping, etc.

I have ridden many different types of horses. A lot of the horses I have ridden have been problem horses. One with a refusing problem that I worked with for a long time with my trainer. Another horse was very spooky and nervous and had to be ridden a very specific way or he would refuse. My trainer and I would work hard with these horses and he taught me a lot of training skills. I rode in the hunter divisions at levels from 2"6 to 3". I do not have experience starting a horse.

I have been a competition groom a few times. I have competed in competitions since I was 10 years old. I have worked in competitions as jump crew, ribbons, or just assisting in anything needed.
